Most patrons were not able to pay the full ticket price. Robert Porterfield, founder of the theatre, offered admittance by letting the local people pay with food goods, hence the name "Barter". The original ticket price for a play was 40 cents, or the equivalent in goods. In 1946, Barter Theatre was designated the State Theatre of Virginia. Today, Barter is one of the last year-round professional resident repertory theatres remaining in the United States. -Wikipedia ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/10278/4076f746-dad9-4fd9-a64d-5485c97a1655.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Barter Theatre You can get tickets for a performance at Barter Theatre during your trip to Abingdon.
