From the Ground Up

From the Ground Up

The Barter Theatre Scene shop Benefit CD ... a compilation of original songs

After a fire destroyed The Barter Theatre's scene shop on February 18th, 2006, the Barter's Resident Acting Company got together to brainstorm ideas on how to help raise funds for the shop's rebuilding. The CD above is the result of that brainstorm. From the Ground Up is an eclectic mix of exciting original acoustic songwriting by Barter actors and technicians. All proceeds from the sales of this CD go directly toward the constructing of The Barter's new scene shop ... From the Ground Up.
