The Barrymore Theatre

The Barrymore Theatre A beautiful gem of a music venue on the near east side of Madison, WI! The Barrymore was built in 1927 as a movie theatre, so the seating is theatre style.
(1094)

For dancing shows the old orchestra pit is a dance floor. For sit down shows, we fill the orchestra pit with chairs. Contact us if you want to know if it's a dancing or seated show. We have 12 beers on tap, wine, wine coolers, and mixed drinks. You can't go wrong with our drink options! We also have movie theater style food and drink options. Popcorn is our specialty. Popped in coconut oil with no

salt added. You add the flavorings which include salt, cheddar, white cheddar, jalapeño, ranch, brewers yeast, and sour cream and chives. It has been said that we have the best popcorn in Madison, and we won't disagree.

Our community and our Marquette neighbors witnessed another horrific officer-involved shooting just blocks from our festival grounds, leaving us in deep pain and justified anger.

In acknowledgment of what has happened far too often in our community and our country as a whole, this year's AtwoodFest, themed 'The Heartbeat of the Neighborhood,' is canceled.

AtwoodFest's core values have always centered on building community, using each festival's proceeds to support the groups doing important work right here in our neighborhood. Now it is vital to support our neighbors, particularly those who have borne the brunt of this pain and injustice, by taking time to mourn and reflect on our role in these broken systems, so we can create a community that truly lives up to our values.

The heart of our neighborhood needs healing. We encourage you to spend your time and energy this weekend on supporting events and spaces demanding change, mutual aid, and loving and supporting your friends and neighbors.

We also want to thank the countless volunteers, sponsors, musicians, vendors, and community members who have worked tirelessly planning this festival, this year and every year. We are doing our best to reach out to each of you personally, and we will use social media and other channels to share additional logistics and information.

Sincerely,
Schenk Atwood Starkweather Yahara Neighborhood Association and The Barrymore Theatre
