Rivertowns Playhouse

Inspired by the principles of the Small Scale Agriculture Movement, which champions local farms and farmer's markets as alternatives to large agricultural corporations, the Rivertowns Playhouse advocates for a similar approach to the future of theater in America. We firmly believe that professional, high-quality performing arts should originate from within communities, be created by community members, and be intended for the benefit of everyone.

By investing in and supporting local talent, we aim to decentralize the artistic landscape, challenging the dominance of the systems prevalent in Broadway and Hollywood. Our goal is to empower individuals and communities by placing the power of entertainment and inspiration back into their hands.

RTP serves as a catalyst for this transformative process. We strive to foster a vibrant artistic community that flourishes through grassroots initiatives. By engaging with us, you become an integral part of this movement. Together, we can reshape the artistic landscape and create a future where the arts thrive within and for our communities.

Theatrical Performing Arts mirror our world's dynamic challenges, offering both reflection and hope. Rivertowns Playhouse is dedicated to staging plays, musicals, and productions that resonate deeply with these contemporary themes. We believe in the power of theater to help us navigate the complexities of our era, offering a sanctuary of understanding and catharsis.

In an era characterized by profound change, Rivertowns Playhouse offers a sanctuary to explore and interpret the evolving stories of our time. We are committed to financial accessibility, presenting plays entirely free of charge in a venue that boasts free parking and is conveniently located near key public transportation hubs, including the Westchester Bus Bee Line (Routes: 1, 1T, 1W) at Broadway and Main Street, as well as the Metro North Station Hudson Line at Irvington. Our facilities are handicap accessible, and we are continuously working to enhance our ADA compliance. Our unwavering commitment to continuously improving our inclusivity capabilities ensures that our theater remains inviting to everyone, delivering stories that resonate with and inspire a diverse spectrum of audiences.
