Theatre Projects

A gift from novelist Stephen King in memory of his mother, the Ruth King Theatre is a 20th century adaptation of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre.

The intimate theatre includes two levels of balconies and side galleries which wrap around the stage and stack the audience vertically above the performers. The flexible facility features and an orchestra pit and a series of platform pieces that can reconfigure the stage into proscenium or thrust arrangements. Additional performance and support spaces in the arts center include a 50-seat studio theatre, a full scene shop, green room, dressing rooms, and costume shop.
