About RICHMOND GATEWAY THEATRE SOCIETY
Incorporated in 1982, Gateway Theatre is a charitable, non-profit arts organization with the mission to enrich the quality of life in Richmond and surrounding communities by creating outstanding professional theatre and serving as a dynamic hub for the performing arts. At Gateway Theatre, we provide a platform for the whole community to contribute to, and benefit from, the performing arts. A place where you can learn from others, see yourself represented, and take pride in the rich cultural landscape that Richmond has to offer.
We proudly provide entry points for audiences and performers in three key areas:
ARTISTIC OFFERINGS
A Reflection of Richmond
Our vision is to produce a breadth of stories that tackle the ideas, values, and issues, which reflect the diverse people of this city. Through live theatre shows and community-focused events, our aim is to bring people together that encourage dialogue and an exchange of ideas. When we celebrate our community’s stories, we instill a sense of pride and a greater curiosity for the city we live in. We are proud to nurture incredible local talent– the cast, the crew, and the wider production teams – and provide them with more opportunities to create meaningful work they can be proud of.
THEATRE EDUCATION
Beyond Performing Arts
Education in the performing arts can mean enriching any number of skills – acting, singing, dancing, production – but where it is most transformative is often beyond the stage. Our Gateway Academy connects youth ages 6-18 to the performing arts, providing them with a safe, welcoming environment to build confidence, self-awareness, and a sense of belonging. We are proud to play a role in forming what the next generation of Richmond looks like and contributing to its rich cultural heritage for generations to come.
VENUE RENTALS
Celebrating the City in Style
Every year more than 15,000 people come through our doors to participate in events put on by the public. From touring productions to Chinese opera, we help Richmond celebrate its diversity, achievements, and talents. Whether you are coming to see one of the community performances or looking to rent our venue, we hope to create a place where you can call a second home.
We are excited to be bringing Richmond together through the performing arts.
