About us
The Windham Theatre Guild is a non-profit organization that has been producing quality community theatre at affordable prices since 1985. Hundreds of community volunteers join us each year as we strive to offer live theatrical and musical productions and education in the performing arts that promote the growth, quality and general welfare of the Arts in Eastern and Central Connecticut. The Guild's Board of Directors is committed to creating a diverse and varied program of performances that appeals to a broad spectrum of our community of performers and audience members.
In 2002, the Guild raised over $200,000 to renovate a bank building into a home for the organization on Main Street in Willimantic. The Burton Leavitt Theatre allowed the organization to expand its programming, volunteer base and audience. Currently, the Guild produces five Main Stage productions ranging from comedies to dramadies, to murder mysteries to musicals as well as youth productions, Broadway Chorus concerts and other events.
The WTG draws an average attendance of 5,000 people at over fifty performances a year. The organization continues to grow and expand its program each year, offering a variety of opportunities for members of the community to learn about and experience many aspects of the theatre. The WTG depends on the community for all of its participants and for much of its financial support. Despite widespread support, theatres struggle to survive on ticket sales and fundraising events alone. Donations and grants are needed to allow the Guild to operate the building and keep prices within reach for the majority of our community.
