Cute town too if you were going to stop somewhere for lunch. So there is a lot of yarn to choose from, really cute notions/stitch markers and project bags (adorable), good selection of amigurumi yarn too. There is a local dyer who supplies the store with her yarn and her color sense is gorgeous! The employees were very nice and helpful but they have no problem letting you just look around until that souvenir yarn starts telling you to "take me home" :). I think it will be a regular pit stop for me when we head north again :).

June 13th, 2:00 showing of The Savannah Sipping- was a delightful show! The acting was spectacular!…read moreWe loved the way the actors so enjoyed the acting of each other; frequently laughing together. At first the play opens with the characters relating on a very quick and easy, albeit, simplistic level. After intermission we witness their friendships really take shape. They deepen and widen into real conversations and trust. The age range in friendships ensured that we (my friend group) each related in some way to the characters. We cried, laughed and hugged each other tight as we contemplated life's future adventures together.

For a more intimate experience, in which you're up close and personal with the players, see a show at Stage II. The 2/3 thrust seating of Barter's black box theater allows you to feel as though you're a part of each production that you experience. Featuring only 156 seats, there isn't a single bad seat in this small venue.

I put it right up there with "Elvis has left the building", for just awesome good humor. I cannot tell you how glad I am after seeing the exit sign, BARTER THEATRE, NEXT EXIT years ago on our way to Dollywood in Tennessee, when I got back home, I looked it up on the internet. We have been proud attendees ever since. If you like live stage and you are ever close to BARTER in Abingdon, catch a performance. You will be glad you did. We certainly are!
