Priscilla Beach Theatre (PBT) - A Look Forward and Back, Priscilla Beach, Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



Above, the upcoming 2022 performance season at Priscilla Beach Theatre.

Since the 2015 performance season, current Owners and Guardians Bob and Sandy Malone have brought extraordinary live performances to the Priscilla Beach Theatre (PBT) Barn Stage. PBT is one of the original barn summer stock theatres in America. It was founded in 1937 by Dr. Franklin Trask and has been a rigorous summer stock training ground for generations of actors. The above image depicts the upcoming performance season May through October, 2022.

Since the renovation, restoration, and reopening in summer of 2015, there have been 31 different main shows on the Barn Stage. Thousands of folks have delighted in these extraordinary live theatre performance experiences. (PBT also offers separate training workshop programs and performances for children).

If you haven't been to PBT, plan to go to show your support for live performing arts in our community. The next season begins in May 2022 and tickets go on sale in December 2021. Here's the link to the PBT website, pbtheatre.org

Plan to support this neighborhood jewel during the next performance season beginning in May 2022!

The following images show the Playbill covers for each of the main shows during the current stewardship of Owners and Guardians Bob and Sandy Malone. (A normal season has six different shows, May through October. Season 2021 was shortened due to the pandemic restrictions, and Season 2020 was completely postponed for the same reason).

I had the opportunity to photograph a dress rehearsal for each of these shows and you may see the still photos at this link, Live Theatre Photography. The desktop view offers an alphabetical index in the right-side margin. The index is not visible in the mobile phone format.



The Barn Stage has been offering live Broadway-quality shows since 1937. 



The theatre was completely renovated in 2014-15 by the current Owners and Guardians Bob and Sandy Malone and features comfy seats and state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems to provide a first-class theatre experience for patrons.
