A delightful community theater with a warm welcoming ambiance. We saw the production of Tuesdays with Morrie while on vacation and it was very well done and a moving performance. They made accommodations so we could all get in to enjoy the production. It was a wonderful way to wrap up our time in Newport. Highly recommended!
