**Cry It Out at Barter Theatre**

Join us at Barter’s Smith Theatre from June 21st to August 17th for a compelling performance of "Cry It Out," written by Molly Smith Metzler.

**Synopsis:**
Four months postpartum, Jessie transitions from being a corporate lawyer in glamorous Manhattan to a new mom in a quiet Long Island suburb. Clad in dirty yoga pants and grappling with the demands of a newborn, she seeks solace and understanding in the company of other local mothers.

Join us for a journey over the rainbow that promises to be as heartwarming as it is visually stunning. There's no place like Barter Theatre to witness the magic of "The Wizard of Oz."

The Wizard of Oz

Young Scout and her brother Jem live in the sleepy town of Maycomb, Alabama with their widowed father, the lawyer Atticus Finch.  Life is wonderful – until the facade of the seemingly peaceful town begins to crack when a young Black man is accused of a terrible crime. Driven by an unshakeable moral conviction, Atticus defends the man in a trial that sends waves of violence through the community. This hard-hitting work explores prejudice, compassion and the courage to do what is right.

To Kill a Mockingbird

Join us for the high-energy musical based on the 80’s movie. When Ren and his mother leave Chicago and move to the rural community of Bomont, Ren finds himself at odds with most everyone, including the powerful Reverend Moore. As a result of a recent tragedy, Moore has convinced the town fathers to outlaw dancing. With the help of Ariel (Moore’s daughter) and Willard (his new friend), Ren convinces the Reverend to let teenagers dance again, and in the process, helps to heal the whole town.

Footloose

Playwright Kate Hamill gives us a fresh, comic take on this beloved novel. This wildly theatrical adaptation follows two radically different sisters—sensible Elinor and emotional Marianne—in the wake of their father’s death, as they face wave after wave of dance partners, dinner parties and great loves amid an English society mad for gossip.
