At Theatre 831 we create a vibrant hub for our community, uniting through the power of storytelling. Our mission is to empower artists through mentorship and education, fostering empathy, self-awareness, and inclusion. We believe in the transformative power of live Theatre and strive to produce innovative, high-quality theatre that resonates with diverse audiences.
The Colligan Theatre has been a hub for artistic expression and cultural exchange. As the new stewards of this venue, Theatre 831 is committed to upholding its legacy while charting a course for continued growth and vitality. Through innovative programming, community engagement initiatives, and strategic planning, we aim to establish the Colligan Theatre as a beacon of artistic excellence and a catalyst for economic development at the Tannery Arts Center and beyond.
Theatre 831 is confident that our experience, expertise, and unwavering dedication to the arts make us the ideal partner to manage this Theatre. As a nonprofit, we hope to:
• provide an affordable cultural facility for use by local organizations for a maximum number of events;
• present quality entertainment, cultural events, and performances of interest to all segments of the community; • provide frequent programming so the Theatre will be an economic catalyst for the Tannery Arts Center in harmony with the housing and artist studios.
Your support will make all the difference in realizing our shared vision for a thriving arts community.
Our family loves this amazing community! We started a year and a half ago and my daughter has flourished and challenged herself. Lindsey Chester has brought out gifts that my daughter did not know that she has. Please run, don't walk and join us!
