ST. CROIX FESTIVAL THEATRE!
St. Croix Festival Theatre’s mission is to make the performing arts welcoming to all people as an essential part of the well being and vitality of the community.
St. Croix Festival Theatre was formally founded in 1990 as a non-profit 501(c) (3) corporation to provide St. Croix Valley residents and visitors to this scenic region with highest quality of live professional theatre. In the years since, Festival Theatre has produced more than 100 plays for more than 200,000 St. Croix Valley residents and visitors.
St. Croix Festival Theatre “came home” to The Historic Auditorium in August 2024 with their production of The Spitfire Grill, and is excited to round out their 2024 season with productions of Heck and A Christmas Carol. Festival Theatre will continue to have events at the Franklin Black Box Theatre.
