Workshop Theatre of SC

Workshop Theatre of SC is a performing arts theater in Columbia, SC. For more than 50 years it has operated as a community theatre, staging a season that ranges from classic dramas to musicals. Its productions have included Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Next to Normal, The Play That Goes Wrong, and Mean Girls, along with Trolls the Musical. Directors, music directors, and choreographers credited with recent shows include Marybeth Berry, Taylor Diveley, Christy Shealy Mills, Julian Deleon, and Amanda Hines Wrona. The theatre also runs educational programs for all ages, including audition-based musical productions for students, private 30-minute vocal sessions for singers at any level, and a sibling discount for families registering more than one student. Its box office is open Monday through Friday from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM and one hour before showtime.

Taylor Diveley, a member of the theatre's educational team and its Board of Trustees, studied vocal performance at the University of SC and Coastal Carolina University, has performed on the Workshop Theatre stage in Kinky Boots, Torch Song, A Chorus Line, Hundred Days, and A New Brain, and has served as music director for Workshop productions of Cats, Finding Nemo Jr., and The Addams Family Young@Part.

The theatre sits on Columbia College Drive, about a tenth of a mile from the Columbia College Cottingham Theatre and a fifth of a mile from the Columbia College campus. North Main Street runs alongside it, Fairfield Road is roughly three tenths of a mile away, and Younts Stadium and Hyatt Park School are each about a half mile from the address.

Workshop Theatre has been part of Columbia's performing arts community for over half a century, a place where neighbors take the stage alongside one another.
