Types of Events

Resident Artists & Incubator Partners

From September – June, Arts and Culture Incubator events and performances at the Playhouse are often open to the public and span a wide range of topics and styles. Our group of Resident Artists is made up of local theatre-makers. The Incubator Partners are small, non-profit cultural organizations based in our community.

About Resident Artists & Incubator Partners 

New Work Commissions & Playreadings

Among the more than 80 world premieres produced since the Playhouse’s founding in 1960 are plays that have been commissioned. Since 2006, our mission to develop new stories and contribute to the American theatre canon has expanded thanks to the Jerome Fey Endowment for New Plays. Additionally, the Playhouse invites nationally recognized playwrights the opportunity to workshop or present a staged reading of a work in progress.

Rental Performances

Theatres and special event spaces in the Playhouse are available to rent for a variety of performances, receptions, and meetings.
