Our Capital Expansion is underway! Make a donation today to help us finish this transformation and make the CTC an arts cornerstone in our community!
We have received $150,000 in grants from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts and the Champlin Foundation as well as generous gifts from our community to expand our rehearsal studio. Construction is underway!
​
With your help, we can seize this opportunity to transform the ways audiences interact with the theater. You can see in the artist rendering above what our future holds!
​
• Patio Balconies – The balconies will look out over the patio adding an extra 49 seats and the perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail and a show while looking out over the river and Wakefield!
​
• Jean Maxon Carpenter Rehearsal Room – We're adding a new rehearsal room to the second floor of the expansion. This will give us the opportunity to offer more youth and adult classes, start artist collaboratives, and continue rehearsing for our incredible productions! The room will be named in honor of Jean Maxon Carpenter who believed in the potential for greatness in every person and filled the world with music.
​
• Upgraded Bar – The new construction will move the patio bar indoors with more space and amenities for our bartenders so that we can better serve you! There will be room to hang out with a drink before or after the show to complete your evening of fun!
Your Name Here!
Donors at the $10,000 or more level can get stones named in their honor. There are only a few stones available on our beautiful patio, and we will not add more in the future. This is an opportunity to be key to the theater's development and making these dreams a reality. Can you support us today?
