ALLAN BARLOW, MANAGING DIRECTOR

Allan took up the position of Managing Director at RECT in June of 2016 but in the early 80s, while earning his degree in Acting/Directing at MTSU, he spent three summers in Harrodsburg performing in The Legend of Daniel Boone. The intervening 30+ years have been occupied with a professional acting, directing, and teaching career that has taken him to 48 of the 50 states as well as Japan, Canada, and Spain. He has played everything from Shakespeare to Rodgers & Hammerstein, and has adapted and directed many pieces of children’s literature for the stage.  His one-man adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol has become an annual holiday tradition at Ragged Edge, starting back in 2011. At RECT, Allan has directed numerous productions including The Taming of the Shrew, Frozen, Jr., Little Shop of Horrors, and many others to date.  Allan is married to Harrodsburg native, Judy Machal Barlow.
