Sacred Heart University Community Theatre

Entertainment & Education in Concert

First opened as a vaudeville house in 1920, the Sacred Heart University Community Theatre is a 500-seat cinema and performance space located in downtown Fairfield. In May 2019, Sacred Heart University and Kleban Properties partnered to renovate and reopen the long-shuttered landmark as a contemporary arts and education venue open to the SHU community and the public.

Home to a unique blend of film, world-class concerts and performances, lectures, youth programs and academic endeavors, the theatre provides SHU students with an exciting variety of engaging learning opportunities in every aspect of live performance, production and theatre management.
