Willingham Theater
We want every citizen and visitor of Yadkin County to be moved, inspired, informed, and challenged by the transformational power of the art they consume. But art capable of inspiring, educating, and exploring is not limited to pen to paper, or paint to canvas.
The staple of our theater arts program is the Willingham Theater.
Throughout history, creatives have documented, questioned, and reconstructed society based on the power of their music and stories.
Our mission is to transform and enrich the lives of every citizen, and visitor, of Yadkin County through a broad variety of arts programs, including live theater.
The staple of our theater arts program is the Willingham Theater.
About the Theater
The Willingham Theater hosted its first performance in December 2012, just two short years after the Yadkin Cultural Arts Center opened its doors to the citizens of Yadkin County. While many might dismiss the power of a small city theater, we like to prove that we can indeed bring the big city excitement and experience to our small town. Our state-of-the-art theater seats 193 patrons and showcases a variety of engaging performances ranging from music, dance, drama, comedy, and even film. In addition to ample seating, the Willingham Theater has a remarkable state-of-the-art-technology.
