The Anacostia Playhouse is both a rental facility as well as a producing organization. We have already hosted such respected companies as Theater Alliance (our resident company), Verbal Gymnastics, Pinky Swear, Scena Theater, Restoration Stage and Southeast Trinity on our stage and look forward to housing many other producing entities. Ongoing outreach efforts have resulted in partnerships with Ballou High School, Thurgood Marshall Public Charter School and Young Playwrights Theatre, all of whom had productions in our space. Between mainstage productions we host readings of new plays, jazz concerts, fundraisers and more. With an additional multi-function space, we can host rehearsals and community meetings, and long range plans include a roster of after school and summer activities and a technical apprenticeship program. e welcome your input. Please give us your suggestions about what you think we should consider offering, both on stage and off. And if you have a creative or technical resume, please send it along. We do contract hires for many productions as well as for after school teaching positions.
