The Colonial Theatre, a non-profit educational institution incorporated in the states of Connecticut and Rhode Island, began in April of 1985 with the renovation of two buildings (built in 1844) now on The National Landmark Registry.
The first production opened on June 18, 1985. At the theatre’s inception, programming involved theatrical performance from February through December, educational programs, along with training and internship programs. Outreach was also initiated with a touring production of scenes from Shakespeare that played in schools and social centers in addition to the theatre. Programming continued to grow, with the addition of reading series for new works, and the development and production of several new works.
