My cousin recommended stopping at the Barter Theater as the perfect break while my wife and I were…read moredriving from DC to Asheville, NC. We're so glad we listened! We caught a production of The Da Vinci Code, and it completely blew us away. For a small town, this place is incredible. The quality of the performance was top-notch, the theater itself is charming, and they run roughly six different productions a day across morning, afternoon, and evening shows. The tickets were very reasonably priced, making it an easy and enjoyable detour. We'll definitely be back next time we're in the area and only wish we had planned to stay longer. If you're anywhere near Abingdon, Virginia, do yourself a favor and make time for a show at the Barter Theater. You won't regret it!

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!

Front end lady was nice and the 2 vendors we met while there were great . The one vendor lady treated us like she knew us our entire life's and we have never been to this area before . It was really nice to have such hospitality and treated so well . They even told us to check out other stores and places to eat and places to just check out . On a side note it is also one of the cleanest antique stores and doesn't have that musty smell you get in most of them .

From what I remember prices weee very reasonable and there' s even a tiny garden in the back (buy your book and coffee first!). I sure hope this place is still there when and if I return to Abingdon.
