Description

Originally called The Hub Theater when it opened back in 1915, this is a place we still envision as a genuine hub for the community, a “people’s theatre” where we can come together in an intimate space, to participate, take risks, laugh out loud, show our support for one other and for the arts, and, importantly, ask the question “what if?”. We see ourselves as guardians of arts education and of performing artists. We cultivate new talent, foster creative thinking and dissolve boundaries which limit our understanding, through policies of inclusion. What does that mean in plain English? We want everyone and anyone to feel at home here, from kids and teens to elders, from all communities, and to be nourished and cherished by the embrace of theatre, performance, spectacle and participation. We respect diversity of origin, thought and life expression, we seek to create meaningful access for the widest possible performer, audience and participant base, and we aim to represent the natural world with dignity and integrity.

We offer theatre, music, comedy, fine arts, spoken word, classes and more…
