The Playhouse on the Green
![]()
Playhouse on the Green enriches Bridgeport's cultural
life by providing an eclectic variety of live stage entertainment and arts
education programs at an affordable cost, as well as providing opportunities
for area artists. Its small, 228-seat jewel box theater offers a range
of entertainment throughout the year, attracting a diverse and growing
audience to downtown Bridgeport.
Recognized for its brightly lit marquee and celebrated for its beauty,
the Playhouse is an award-winning example of the adaptive re-use of historic
buildings. The majestic former bank building has been converted into
an intimate yet elegant proscenium theatre with magnificent details including
marble walls, Corinthian pilasters, and a coffered ceiling highlighted
with gilded florets. The
auditorium is very comfortable, with excellent acoustics and superb sightlines. There
isn’t a bad seat in the house! The Playhouse on the Green also is
available for rental for private parties, performances and events. Find out more at www.playhouseonthegreen.org
