About Us

We have a love for theater!

Orrville Community Theater is a nonprofit organization that regularly presents shows in the Orrville area. Murder Mysteries, Christmas Shows, Children’s Workshops, Teen Workshops, and more!
Our goal is to keep LIVE theater ALIVE!

When the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the United States, we lost our biggest financial support because we were unable to put on shows or hold classes. Unfortunately, we had to give up our building space and sell off some of our prop inventory while the rest went into storage while we awaited the reopening of businesses in Ohio. As of right now, we are a nomadic theater, using a variety of local venues to put on shows while we search for another venue to call our own.

We can always use cast and crew members for the shows. We also have other non-stage volunteer positions, such as helping with concessions, baking goodies for concessions, and more! If you like being in the spotlight, join us for auditions for an upcoming show!  If you don’t like being in the spotlight, we still have a spot for you!

The Orrville Community Theater is based out of Orrville, Ohio.
