LET'S CONNECT

For many years our name alone has confused and surprised many. Let us assure you that we are NOT a "comedy club" in the sense that we are a stand-up club or a venue for similar performances. We are a community theater with a big emphasis on the word "community"!
Generally we produce four main shows per season, which include a musical and three plays beginning in November through May as well as other special events such as the Annual Barnstable Village Stroll, staged readings, and acting and directing workshops.
As the oldest running, live community theater on Cape Cod and one of the oldest in America, we strive to bring excellence to all of our patrons, volunteers, members and to the community. We are a MA 501(3)(c) nonprofit volunteer driven organization. Dedicated volunteers work in all areas of the theater from front of the house to performers to production to our Board of Directors.
Director James F. Ring has announced the cast of DIAL M FOR MURDER, adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher from the original by Frederick Knott. The cast is as follows: Cassandra West as Margo Wendice, Flannery Rogers as Maxine Hadley, Rob Minshall as Tony Wendice, John Hanright as Lesgate, and Larry Lickteig as Inspector Hubbard. Both Erika Slater and Miranda Daniloff Mancusi record voice-overs for the BBC. This smart, tight, compelling suspenseful thriller opens March 6th.
Whatever your talent or preference, we have a place for you!

Volunteers provide vital support for the Barnstable Comedy Club. Our volunteers assist with the multitude of tasks required to bring a production to life. Every scene, every line, every emotion on stage is backed by this group of amazing volunteers. This is an excellent opportunity to gain real world knowledge of theater operations as well as donate valuable time to the local theater community. And besides all of that, you’ll get to work with a great group of people and have a lot of fun!

INTO THE BREECHES!.. a laugh-out-loud love letter to theater.
The Barnstable Comedy Club proudly presents INTO THE BREECHES!, a heart-warming comedy by George Brant. Under the direction of Stephen Lajoie, the show opens on January 9 at 7:30 PM and continues through January 26 with performances on Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 PM and Sunday matinees at 2:30 PM. General admission tickets are $25/$23 for seniors 65+ and for students. Tickets are available online here or reserved by calling the box office at 508-362-6333.
INTO THE BREECHES! comes to life with a very talented and funny cast of well-seasoned Cape Cod actors that include Janet Geist Moore, Liz Liuzzi, Sandy Basile, Marcus Liuzzi, Frank Hughes, Jr., Amy E. Cole, Amie McFarlane and Emma Miles.
That time-honored adage, “The Show Must Go On,” takes on new meaning in this endearing and moving modern comedy set at a small American playhouse in 1942. With the actors and director off at war, a group of passionate women face the daunting challenge of preserving the theater’s reputation for mounting outstanding Shakespearean productions. Crammed with laughs and an abundance of visual humor, their fierce determination and unbridled enthusiasm will have audiences cheering as they prove that art and community triumph, even in times of peril. This is a charming, disarmingly entertaining play filled with humor, history and social commentary.
The Barnstable Comedy Club is located at 3171 Main Street, Route 6A (The Village Hall) in Barnstable, MA 02630. The BCC is directly across the street from the Barnstable Tuscan Cuisine/Tavern (formally the Barnstable Tavern.)
Parking is available behind the building in the Registry of Deeds parking lot. Handicap parking is behind the building near the ramp. At the top of the ramp is a doorbell. Please ring it by pressing and holding down for a few seconds and an usher will open up the door for you.
