The John Astin Theatre in Merrick Barn

The John Astin Theatre is located in the historic Merrick Barn, at the center of Homewood Campus. The 104-seat theatre, with a classic proscenium stage, hosts all JHU Theatre productions. Merrick Barn is also home to the Undergraduate Program in Theatre Arts & Studies.

Parking and Directions

  • Visitors can park in the South Garage, located under the Decker Quadrangle on Wyman Park Drive. The garage is fully automated and open 24 hours. The pay station is in the vestibule next to the Parking Office. The weekend flat rate is $8.
  • Drivers may first drop their passengers at the Merrick Barn and then drive to the South Garage. It is a 10-minute walk from the South Garage to the Merrick Barn.
  • Street parking should be available near the Baltimore Museum of Art. Walk through the sculpture garden for easiest access to Merrick Barn.
  • Use Google Maps to find the theatre.

Construction Notice: Please be aware that due to construction, Merrick Barn cannot be accessed directly from the Beach or North Charles Street. You may get to the Barn from the south: walk up from the Baltimore Museum of Art. Or you may get there from the west, from Wyman Quad. JHU affiliates with IDs can cut through Brody. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
