Bell Road Barn Players 2010 Season

The Bell Road Barn Players announces a return engagement to the Jenkin and Barbara David Theater on the Park University campus for its 2010 season. We are happy to continue our association with Park University that began 56 years ago. To celebrate, the season features return engagements of audience favorites that will remind everyone why the Bell Road Barn earned its reputation for quality community theater productions.

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie
Directed by Nino Casisi
June 4, 5 and June 11, 12 at 8 pm
Matinee June 13 at 2 pm

Originally produced in 1964 and 1982 as Ten Little Indians, Agatha Christie creates a masterpiece of mystery and murder. After ten strangers gather together on an isolated island off the coast of Devon, England, one by one, they each are murdered. As those remaining frantically search for the murderer, their own guilty pasts return to haunt them.

You Can't Take It With You by George S Kaufman and Moss Hart
Directed by Matt Hentges
July 9, 10 and July 16, 17 at 8 pm
Matinee July 18 at 2 pm

The first play that Jenkin David produced in 1954, this Pulitzer Prize winning comedy relates the humorous encounter between a conservative family and the crazy household of Grandpa Martin Vanderhof. Grandpa's family of idiosyncratic individualists will amuse with their energetic physical antics and inspire with their wholehearted pursuit of happiness.


Black Comedy by Peter Shaffer
Directed by Tiffany Schweigert
July 30, 31 and August 6, 7 at 8pm
Matinee August 8 at 2 pm

This farce was first produced at our Riverside theater in 1993. Black Comedy is the zany story of struggling artist and his precarious antics as he tries to impress the militaristic father of his fiancée and introduce himself to a famed art dealer, all in the span of an evening with no electricity. Throw in a jealous ex-girlfriend, a flamboyant neighbor, and an amiable, if tipsy, matron, and the fun is fast and farcical. When the characters are plunged into pitch darkness, the audience sees them in brilliant stage light, free to enjoy every spill, fall, tangle, and twist.

All performances are located in the David Theater, Park University 8700 NW River Park Dr, Parkville, MO 64152. For more information and directions to the theater please visit Bell Road Barn.com
