History
In October 2010 Michael Gwin and Ranier Vidale leased the building with an option to buy and founded The Schultz Theatre. In 2012 The Schultz was named by the readers of Virginia Living Magazine as one of the outstanding performing arts troupes in the Commonwealth of Virginia. November 2016, The Schultz Theatre and School of Performing Arts moved to Broadway, VA. Performances will be at J. Frank Hillyard Auditorium. Our new venue boasts central air conditioning, comfortable seating and excellent sight lines for an optimal theatrical experience. We are especially pleased to be making this move with funding assistance from the Town of Broadway and the enthusiastic support of the Broadway community.
Specialties
The Schultz Theatre and School of Performing Arts is a non-profit 501(c)(3) community theatre, showcasing the talents of our neighbors ranging from pre-teens to retired. Our goal is to provide an entertainment venue for the community. By offering theatre, dance, music, entertainment and quality instruction in the performing arts, we hope to enrich the lives of the community we serve while building for the future.
