Barre Players is a rural, non-profit, community theater committed to staging quality, affordable theater in Central Massachusetts.

Barre Players is a rural, non-profit, community theater committed to staging quality, affordable theatrical productions. Our theater is located on the historic common at 64 Common Street in Barre, Massachusetts. Our typical theater season includes four productions (Fall, Christmas Holiday, Early Spring, Late Spring) and occasional special events. During the summer months we sponsor youth productions. For college-bound high school graduates, we have a scholarship program, which recognizes personal contributions to our organization. We are a diverse group of individuals with a variety of interests. Our common bond is the desire to be involved in some way - directly or indirectly - in theatrical productions. New members are always welcome and appreciated. Our members and patrons come from many towns, primarily in the central Massachusetts area. Our theater is air conditioned, wheelchair accessible, and features elevated seating.

We are saddened by the loss of Jack Kittredge, a longtime and valued member of Barre Players. For over two decades, Jack served as our treasurer. The policies he helped create and manage were essential in the transition to owning a building on the common. He put in countless hours on our board, but also assisted with our productions and building - whether it was digging a hole for our rear egress, taking tickets at the box office, or performing on the stage. You may have seen him in The Crucible, Quork’s Passage, Fiddler on the Roof, or the chorus in one of our holiday shows.

We appreciate all that Jack did to make Barre Players a successful, viable community theater in Central Mass. We send our thoughts and best wishes to his loved ones.
