Barter Theatre Announces Half-Price 'Barter Break' Day-of-Show Tickets

Honoring Barter's founding tradition that Barter is for everyone, Barter Theatre is excited to announce the new "Barter Break" ticket: Any seats that are available after 11:00am on the day of a performance at Barter can be purchased at 50% off the regular ticket price. Barter Break tickets must be purchased in-person at Barter's box office on the day of the performance.

Barter is offering Barter Break tickets for all Barter Theatre and Barter Stage II shows for the entire 2014 Season as a thanks to all of our patrons for their support. The already highly-discounted tickets to The Barter Players are not included as a part of Barter Break ticket offer.

"Barter was founded in the spirit of making great theatre accessible to everyone in our region, and that's a tradition we're proud to continue," said Richard Rose, Producing Artistic Director. "Robert Porterfield found a way to bring incredible storytelling to the people of Appalachia at a price anyone could afford, and we want to ensure that we are doing that same thing today."

"Barter Break" tickets are a perfect option for those who are able to take a chance on a last-minute ticket purchase. Available seats will be put on sale for half price beginning at 11:00am the day of the performance (1:00pm on Sunday). Some limitations do apply: there are no advance reservations. Barter Break tickets cannot be combined with any other Barter discounts. Patrons are limited to purchasing 6 Barter Break tickets at a time. And, of course, all sales are non-refundable.

For patrons who desire guaranteed reservations in advance and want their choice of the best seats, Barter continues to offer its flexible Barter Season PassBooks, which offer savings of up to 54% and many more advantages, like the ability to cancel or exchange a reservation up to 2 hours before show time with no penalty. Barter Season PassBooks also include ticket replacement insurance, the ability to share passes with friends and make additional reservations without pre-payment, as well as 10% discounts at the Barter Gift Shop or Bob's at Barter.

Barter Break tickets and Barter Season PassBooks offer great ways to see Barter's current spring shows, which include the stirring musical "Man of La Mancha" and the witty British comedy "I Do, I Do, I Do" on Barter's Main Stage, as well as the outrageously funny story of the making of Gone With the Wind entitled "Don't Cry For Me, Margaret Mitchell" and the world premiere of "The Dryad: An Appalachian Tale" at Barter Stage II.

Barter offers a range of prices throughout the season, including $22 Tuesdays, Pay-What-You-Can performances, as well as discounts for military personnel, AAA members, seniors and students.
