The Barn Dinner Theatre franchise was conceived in the 1960s by Howard D. Wolfe and Conley Jones Sr., the creators of the “dinner theatre” concept. The Greensboro location, which opened in 1964, was among the first in a chain of 27 dinner theatres with the same name.
Shows were originally cast and staged at Wolfe’s studio in New York City, and then sent out to individual theatres. In the early days the cast of each performance not only acted on stage but also worked as wait-staff for tips before the show. They resided in living quarters, small rooms with shared bath and kitchen facilities, above the theatre for the duration of the production.
