Three acting legends return to the stage where it all began. Frankie Hart, Eddie Ford, and Kay Byrd first lit up the historic Barton Playhouse three decades ago, and their journey has taken them from Topeka to the Poconos, dazzling audiences with everything from Shakespeare to side-splitting antics. Now, in Act Three of their lives, they’re back at the theatre that started it all, headlining the most successful residency in Barton Playhouse history with their hilarious act, “Frankie, Eddie, and Kay.” But amidst the laughter, cracks are beginning to show. Can they overcome the friction brewing behind the punchlines, or will their friendship implode? Dive into this uproarious and heartfelt exploration of aging, friendship, and the unexpected twists that come with returning home. Don’t miss the world premiere of Act Three at Tibbits—will their past bring them closer, or tear them apart once and for all? more info...

Students interested in all things theatre, both on stage AND off are encouraged to attend one or both sessions of the week-long summer workshop that will explore all aspects of theatre.
The ACTING sessions are split into two: A morning session is available to students grades 7-12* while the afternoon session is available to students grades 3-6*. Students will hone their acting skills. Through acting games and collaboration exercises students will learn to be comfortable on stage before quickly transferring into ‘rehearsal’ mode to work on the workshop’s performance showcase.
Additionally, the exciting afternoon session for students in grades 7-12* explores TECHNICAL THEATRE and the world of theatrical design. Whether exploring lighting, prop, set, or sound design, the sessions will give a well-rounded, hands-on technical education where students will work on becoming the crew for the performance showcase (when they’re not performing, if they are doing both sessions). more info...

Join us for our June Lunch & Learn - Presented by Todd Squires of Clear Insight
Clear Insight: Building A Resilient Workplace
Join local coach and workplace wellness guide Todd Squires for an interactive conversation on how language, mindset, and nervous system health impact how we show up at work (and, as important, at home).
Todd will introduce his Three C’s Framework—Communication, Consumption, and Conditioning—and share simple, powerful tools your team can use right away to reduce stress, sharpen focus, and create more ease in the day-to-day.
You’ll also get a lighthearted sneak peek at a new side project he’s working on—The Outhouse—because let’s be honest: sometimes, you just need a place to let it out.
Perfect for business owners, HR professionals, and anyone ready to take a fresh (and "maybe" slightly unexpected) look at workplace well-being.

Six quirky tweens are determined to out spell each other for the Putnam County Spelling Bee champion title. While tackling a series of ultra-challenging words, these spellers share hilariously awkward stories from their home lives that could make anyone question the definition of "normal." One speller will walk away with the trophy and bragging rights, while the others face the soul-crushing humiliation of a “ding” and the consolation prize of a juice box. What could be worse than that? Winner of the Tony and Drama Desk Awards for Best Book, this charming musical has audiences in stitches with its quick-witted dialogue and outrageous characters. This is one spelling event that proves it’s not just about winning, but about having a good laugh along the way!
