For many years our name alone has confused and surprised many. Let us assure you that we are NOT a "comedy club" in the sense that we are a stand-up club or a venue for similar performances. We are a community theater with a big emphasis on the word "community"!
Generally we produce four main shows per season, which include a musical and three plays beginning in November through May as well as other special events such as the Annual Barnstable Village Stroll, staged readings, and acting and directing workshops.
As the oldest running, live community theater on Cape Cod and one of the oldest in America, we strive to bring excellence to all of our patrons, volunteers, members and to the community. We are a MA 501(3)(c) nonprofit volunteer driven organization. Dedicated volunteers work in all areas of the theater from front of the house to performers to production to our Board of Directors.

Director Linda M. Stevens has announced the cast of
NUTS, the riveting courtroom drama by Tom Topor.
Based on a real US legal case, the cast is as follows:
THERESA CEDRONE as Claudia Faith Draper
FRANK HUGHES, JR. as Aaron Levinsky
STEVE ROSS as Franklin Macmillan
LARRY LICKTEIG as Arthur Kirk
LEE LaCROIX as Rose Kirk
HUB MATHEWSON as Dr. Herbert Rosenthal
MIKE GILLIS as Judge Murdoch
ROB THORNE as Officer Harry Haggerty
LIZZY SMYTHE as The Recorder
A Broadway hit, NUTS has been called the best courtroom melodrama since Witness for the Prosecution and The Caine Mutiny Court Martial. Set in a courtroom in New York's Bellevue Hospital, the story follows a high-priced call girl incarcerated on a charge for killing a violent "john". The State, represented by a court appointed psychiatrist and an aggressive prosecutor, say Claudia Faith Draper is unfit to stand trial. As testimony from experts, physicians and her parents unfolds, with her psyche and childhood dissected, she proves to the judge that she isn't "nuts" and stands legally sane at trial for manslaughter.
ADULT CONTENT. FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.
The play opens on Thursday, May 2 and runs for three weekends through May 19, 2024.
General Admission Tickets are $25; $23 for Seniors 65+ and Students
