barnstorm
[bahrn-stawrm]
verb: to tour small towns to stage theatrical performances
|
To barnstorm is to travel from town to town putting on shows, especially in smaller communities. The term first became popular with touring theater troupes and later with daredevil pilots performing aerial stunts and politicians who visited towns to speak. No matter the occasion, when you barnstorm it's bound to draw a crowd! |
Example: The traveling actors decided to barnstorm across the Midwest, performing their new play in several rural towns.
