Testimonials

“The longevity of the Playhouse is a testament to its importance to the New London community. As you know, the arts enhance our communities and improve our quality of life. You are to be commended for the positive difference you have made in the lives of countless Granite Staters. On behalf of my constituents across New Hampshire’s Second Congressional District, thank you for all you do to make our state such a wonderful place to call home.”

- Anne McLane Kuster, Member of Congress,
U.S. House of Representatives

"The Barn with its wonderful theatre means more to us than just entertainment. During the 20 years we have been living in New London, we have attended plays with our adult children and grandchildren. Our lives have also been enriched by being a “friendship” family to a variety of actors and to those who have been the backbone of the shows, such as costume designers, etc. Sharing our home for a few days or weeks with equity actors has opened to us a world that we knew little about. These folks have become “family”. The Barn is not just theatre to us, but a relationship with the people you get to know.”

-Marsha & Bruce Johnson

“I worked at the New London Barn Playhouse for three seasons, just a few years before Godspell happened. (In fact, I was able to cast one of the Barn performers with whom I worked in Godspell’s original cast!) At the Barn, I had opportunities to be a musical director, choreographer, director, and even appeared in the ensemble of a few of the shows. Aside from having the time of my life, I learned so much that was invaluable to me in my future career in the theatre. And on top of all that, I met my future wife there!

The Barn is a fantastic place to work and learn, and I would never have had the life or career I’ve had without it!”

-Stephen Schwartz, Composer of Wicked, Godspell, Pippin, Etc.
