ABOUT
A COMMUNITY THEATRE MANAGED BY THE COLONIAL BEACH PERFORMING ARTS ASSOCIATION
Tickets are on sale for all plays in the remaining 2025 Season!
You will not want to miss any of our three remaining 2025 Season plays. The June show is a "whodunnit," followed by a musical and a heartwarming Christmas comedy.
If you are not sure about your 2025 schedule, you can purchase Flex tickets at a discount and use them to purchase individual tickets. More information here.
Dad's Study opens June 14
The Thornhill family has some problems. They don't all like each other, and now Dad announces he is going to marry the local golddigger. Could this have instigated a murder? Could the murder actually bring the family back together? You won't be able to anticipate all the surprises in this drama that author Bob Christiansen terms a traditional but modern murder mystery. Tickets here.
YOU DID IT!
Through the generous support of our community, Colonial Beach's intimate indoor venue now has professional theater seating. Every penny spent on this seating and its installation is independent of ticket sales or any other source of funding. The Seating Fund started on Mother's Day 2023, with a party at the home of Paula Van Alstine and Ron Harris.That party raised over $4,000. On April 8, 2024, the new seats were installed.
Continuing improvements to our venue.
Improvements at our intimate venue at 108 Hawthorn in downtown Colonial Beach are continuing. Two major improvements completed in the last two years are installing professional seating in our auditorium and lighting on the front of our building. The latter was completed with the help of a beautification grant from the Colonial Beach Community Foundation.
In early 2025 we rebuilt our stage and backstage surface. This makes our stage more solid, safer, and a little roomier. In May we moved one of our rows of new seating a few inches back to make the E row aisle consistent with all other rows.
Thanks so much for the your past and current contributions which are making our venue safer, more comfortable, and more attractive.

Re: Four Old Broads: Wonderful funny show ... my wife and I may return to see it again.

Last night two of my friends and I went to the Colonial Beach Playhouse to see the Savannah Sipping Society. We were absolutely delighted and laughed all the way through the play! It was funny and also moving. The actresses were perfection and the stage ladies really got their groove on !! I hope that all of you beach people take the time to see this little gem of a play.
