Town Theatre, Historic theatre in Columbia, US

Town Theatre is a performing arts venue in Columbia, South Carolina that hosts live productions and cultural events. The building features early architectural design with classical details and preserves original structural elements from when it was first built.

The venue was founded in 1910 and initially operated as a silent film house before transforming into a live performance theater. This shift reflects changing entertainment preferences in the region over the decades.

The venue draws performers and audiences from across the region to experience theatrical productions and artistic programs that shape the cultural life of the city. It functions as a gathering place where people connect through storytelling and shared performances.

The venue is easy to reach on foot and offers accessible entrance with nearby parking for those who drive. Staff at the box office can help with seating choices and answer questions about upcoming events.

The theatre has operated continuously since opening about 110 years ago and ranks among the oldest still-active performance spaces in the United States. Its ability to adapt to changing art forms has kept it relevant from the silent film era to today.
