The Port Theatre is an 800-seat theatre offering a broad range of cultural events designed to meet many diverse interests and needs. Programs involve local groups as well as touring attractions and provide access to events for families, seniors, youths and adults, thereby enriching the overall quality of life in the region. A landmark on the city’s waterfront, it also serves as an important meeting place for a variety of community events, seminars and educational conferences. Architect of the Port Theatre, Terry Williams’ goal was to build a theatre that had good sight lines from all seats, excellent acoustics and a wonderful sense of intimacy. Audiences have raved about these features since it opened.
