THEATRE

Theatre For Everyone

Artists' Exchange's Theatre brings quality theatre productions and programming to the community of Cranston; a community of all ages, ethnicities, and abilities.  We celebrate our love of the theatre with several in-house productions each year, from the annual One Act Play Festival, to the holiday favorite"A Christmas Carol," with our own unique twist, and much more.

​

We also serve as a host venue to many local theatre companies and artists who may be interested in putting on a production.  

​

Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. 

Give a man a mask, and he will tell you the truth.

Venues

There are two venue spaces available for rent for performances, or events: The Black Box Theatre at 50 Rolfe and Theatre 82. 

​

The Black Box Theatre can serve as both a traditional black box theatre, as well as thrust space, with stadium-style seating.

Theatre 82 is our secondary venue of Artists' Exchange, and serves as host to both performance and instruction.  Theatre 82 is a very flexible black box space, and has been used in a multitude of functions. This space is complete with two downstairs dressing areas and green room waiting area.
