Contact us about volunteering. Many talents and skills are needed at the Barn. Every season we need behind-the-scenes help: tech volunteers for light and sound, musicians, stage hands, and more. Some positions offer a small stipend. We also have board positions become available as members reach term limits.
We do more than stage plays.
We are a community theatre creating welcoming creative spaces for everyone.
Radio
We produce radio theatre during the winter months.
Willy Wilson Scholarship
A $1,500 scholarship for a high school student in Boone county.
Events
We join in for several community events in Columbia.

The Barn is a non-profit theatre
The mission of the Maplewood Barn Association is to provide high quality, live community theatre to mid-Missouri audiences in an informal, family friendly, outdoor setting in historic Nifong Park. The purpose and mission have remained unchanged since the theatre’s founding as a City-sponsored initiative in 1973.
