Amish Acres has become the national home of Plain and Fancy, now entering its 30th season. This heartwarming tale of life and love on an Amish farm plays in rotating reper-tory May through October. It’s possible to see two different musicals on the same day and greet the professional cast after the show.

Through a million-dollar restoration project the round barn was dismantled, reconstructed, and converted into a state-of-the-art theatre facility with each of its 400 seats having an excellent view of the stage. The round barn’s sixty-foot, self supporting dome and cupola make its natural acoustics superb. Saved from destruction, the round barn found its new home at Amish Acres in 1992.

Before or after the show, partake of the famous Threshers Dinner in the century old barn restaurant with its beautiful view of the farm’s pond. Served family style from iron kettles filled with bean soup to platters of tender meat entrees and tins of freshly baked pies. “Amish Acres Shoofly Pie is the best in the Midwest.” - the Chicago Tribune. “Indiana’s BEST MEAL” in Home & Away magazine.

After the final curtain, retire to the friendly Inn at Amish Acres or the Nappanee Inn, carrying the magic of musical theatre into your dreams and awake to breakfast in the Geranium Room or Milk Parlor.

Forever PlaidApril 13 – May 22 Written & Originally Directed and Choreographed by Stuart RossProduced by special arrangement with Music Theatre InternationalA deliciously fun revue, chock-full of classic barbershop harmonies and pitch-perfect melodies! Forever Plaid is an affectionate musical homage to the close-harmony ‘guy groups’ that reached the height of their popularity during the 1950s. The story revolves around four guys who discover they share a love for music, and then get together to become their idols – The Four Freshman, The Hi-Lo’s and The Crew Cuts. Rehearsing in the basement of Smudge’s family’s plumbing supply company, they become Forever Plaid. Originally produced on the Joseph Stein Stage in 2006, Forever Plaid is a guaranteed smash with its program of beloved songs and delightful patter that keeps audiences rolling in the aisles when they’re not humming along to some of the great nostalgic pop hits of the 1950’s, including “Three Coins in a Fountain,” “Sixteen Tons,” “Chain Gang,” “Heart and Soul,” and “Rags to Riches.”

This 2016 production marks the 30th anniversary year that The Round Barn Theatre has produced Plain and Fancy making it one of the longest running shows anywhere.
