Staging the Future

Together, we’ve created a “Whole New Scene” at Olney Theatre Center. But there’s still more to do.

The Staging the Future Capital Campaign has revitalized our aging campus into a dynamic and versatile cultural destination that better meets the needs of artists and audiences. Our improved performance, production, and education facilities are now in use and fulfilling the dream of producing a new generation of transformative productions, artists, technicians, and arts leaders.
We invite you to learn more about Staging the Future and join us to secure the evolution of Olney Theatre Center into a world-class home for artists, a cultural hub for our community, and a teaching theater unlike any other in the United States.  To give you a taste of all we’ve accomplished, view the video below, which we shared with our community for the first time at our ribbon-cutting ceremony on August 9, 2026.

Please consider making a gift to the Staging the Future Capital Campaign and help us meet our fundraising goal of $36M! We’re so close to the finish line and you can help us get there!
