Blue Barn Theatre




The Blue Barn Theatre, located at 1106 S. 10th Street in Omaha, Nebraska, is a nationally recognized theater.


Begun in 1989, the theater was founded by a group of 1988 graduates from the theater program at Purchase College: Kevin Lawler, Hughston Walkinshaw, Nils Haaland and Mary Theresa Green.


The theater was started at the invite of the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, with whom the theater initially shared a space.

The Blue Barn Produces the works of contemporary American playwrights as well as new works.
Omaha-born filmmaker Alexander Payne, who has been a longtime supporter of the theater, volunteered to be interviewed on the stage in 2002 for a fundraising event for the Bluebarn by Hughston Walkinshaw and current Artistic Director Susan Clement-Toberer.
In 2015 the theatre put down permanent roots in Omaha by building its own 96 seat theatre with a one of a kind indoor outdoor performance space.
