The Barnstormers Theatre is located in Tamworth, New Hampshire, and is the oldest ongoing professional summer theatre in the country.〔("Granite State Stuff: The Barnstormers Theatre Announces its 78th Season" New Hampshire.com )〕 It was founded in 1931 by Francis Cleveland, the son of twenty-second president Grover Cleveland. It is one of the only professional theatres in the country that performs eight shows in eight consecutive weeks every summer. == History ==
In 1931 Francis and Alice Cleveland founded the theatre company, along with their friend, Ed Goodnow. During the summer they would lead a company of resident actors around the region, performing different plays each night. In some cases they would literally storm barns, arriving in the afternoon to set up their scenery and lights in time for an evening performance. After World War II the acting company purchased Kimball's Store on Main Street, across from the Tamworth Inn, and transformed the building into a theatre. Since then the theatre's acting company has kept the rigorous schedule of rehearsing one play by day, and performing another by night, from the end of June to the beginning of September. Francis Cleveland acted as Artistic Director until his death in 1995.
