The Gilliam Stage is the main auditorium of the Barter Theatre, which is located in Abingdon, Va. The smaller is Smith Theatre. Barter Theatre gave its debut performance on June 10, 1933, making it the oldest continuous Equity theatre in the United States. An Equity theatre is a fully professional theatre.

The theatre was established by Robert Porterfield during the period of the Great Depression. During this time, not even Broadway theaters could stay open. Porterfield had the idea of bartering his productions for farming goods, such as food, giving the theater the name “Barter Theatre.” In an era where most thespians were out of work, the Barter Theatre kept its actors employed and busy, working on scenery, props and working in the cafeteria, making the theatre an amazing success at the time.
