Turning a barn into a venue

A family of torning bluegrass musicians decided to lease a barn (which already had seating from its previous life as a melodrama theater) in Kansas and turn it into a music venue.

Born in a barn | lawrence.com, 6/24/07: "He lists the things the Bluegrass Barn Theater has going for it:

• There are 1,000 campsites at Perry Lake, with no other entertainment options.

• Topeka and Lawrence are only a half-hour away, with other smaller towns even closer.

• Bluegrass fans traditionally travel a long way for festivals. With gasoline prices increasing, they might look for options closer to home."
