Welcoming small town theater with unique and entertaining live shows and movies.
Snack bar, merch, and great view of Stonington Harbor. A bit cold and drafty during the show we saw but we were forewarned and brought coats.
Shows we've seen have been fun and professional. Very well done!

Such a great preservation of an historical building. I thoroughly enjoyed my movie experience there. They also have live experiences and a few years ago we went and judged short films.

First class performances in an intimate and historic setting with restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. Postcard ready harbor views.

We came as a group of five for a play.
The place is nice and inviting and keeps an hysterical atmosphere.

Love this place, local and great. The only issue I've had was the flatbread pizza's sauce has way too much garlic in it. I love garlic but it overpowered every other flavor there. It tasted like there was a whole clove on just one pizza.

No visit to Stonington is complete without a trip to its historic theater. The perfect place for a movie or a live show--you'll be surprised to find performance quality on this small Maine island as high as any you might find in NYC or elsewhere!
