The Amish Acres Theatre Experience

Come enjoy all six musicals on the Joseph Stein Stage of the majestic 1911 Round Barn Theatre at Amish Acres at your own pace; The Round Barn Theatre at Amish Acres spread your reservations over the ten month season. The stage is dedicated to the author of Plain and Fancy and Fiddler on the Roof. Amish Acres has become the national home of Plain and Fancy, now entering its 22nd season. The beautifully restored round barn provides a truly unique and appropriate setting. The overall quality of the productions leaves patrons engaged, stunned, and enraptured.

Through a million-dollar restoration project, the 1911 round barn was dismantled, reconstructed, and converted into a state-of-the-art theatre facility with each of its 374 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.

Plan to partake of the famous Threshers Dinner served in the century old barn restaurant with its beautiful view of the farm’s pond. You’ll be served family style from iron kettles filled with bean soup to platters of tender meat entrees and tins of freshly baked pies. The Chicago Tribune declares, “Amish Acres Shoofly Pie is the best in the Midwest.”

For additional variety, experience the Theme Buffets in the Barn Loft Grill on select Friday evenings. Consider adding them to your subscription at additional savings. For each show the Grill is transformed through décor, menu, and ambience into a fine dining experience. Tongue-in-cheek menus are conceived by Richard Pletcher to relate directly to the locale and period of each show. Show references and double entendres, no matter how obscure or ridiculous, are often highlighted in bold letters. Recipes are prepared by Chef Brenda Ritter whose sense of humor is stirred into the pot and skillet. All menu items are subject to change by the whim of the chef.

The Fantasticks will feature Watered Down Tomato Bisque, Fantastickers, Mixed Up Greens with the Blues Cheese, Steaks on the Grill, and Try to Remember you Like Spinach. Ceiling of the Round Barn Theatre The musical may be called Plain and Fancy, but this buffet will have "Plenty of..." everything, from Asparagus to Unions, including Watermelon Pickles, Swiss Steak with Mushrooms, and Roasted Acorn Squash in heaping portions to fill your plate. The Music Man will feature Winthrop’s Devilish Eggs, Lay an Eggplant Antipasto, Fresh Greens from Gary Indiana, Harold Hill Ham, and Well’s Fargo Chuck. It will be a real Clam bake for Carousel with Richard Rodgers Hot Rolls, Baked Clams with Sun Dried Tomatoes, and Veal Oscar Hammerstein. Kiss Me Kate, arguably the Best Buffet Menu, will tout Taming of the Stew, Wunderbars on the desert table, and Cole Porterhouse steak. A Wonderful Life calls for A Wonderful Holiday Feast featuring Clarence’s Wings, George Bailey’s London Broil, and Mr. Potter’s Sour Dough Bread.

After the final curtain, choose the Inn at Amish Acres or the Nappanee Inn for the evening, and carry the magic of musical theatre into your dreams. Wake to breakfast in the Geranium Room or the Milk Parlor, then set out exploring historic Amish Acres with your PastPort to all of the adventures and activities including the guided house and farm tour, farm wagon ride and Threshers Dinner. You’ll also receive valuable discounts on the countryside tour and shopping. Leisure antiquing and a drive through the countryside can extend rest and relaxation from the real world. Nappanee’s central location makes meeting friends for an evening of dinner and theatre convenient.
