In the Community
We are committed to integrating the arts into our diverse community whether through a stellar performance or an interactive lesson in the classroom!
As a world-class venue for the performing arts, the Shubert Theatre will be the center of a thriving regional cultural scene. Through its community outreach and collaborations, the Shubert will be a leader in making New Haven a national model for the importance of the arts in communities.
CAPA/Shubert Theatre-New Haven brings the world to our legendary stage, enriches lives, and creates community through our mission to:
The historic Shubert Theatre is a not-for profit arts, education, and community institution serving the people of Connecticut and in particular the City of New Haven. As a public resource, the Shubert presents a wide array of programs to a diverse community. The theater itself is the crown jewel of downtown New Haven. Opened in 1914 before "talkies," television, or rock concerts, the Shubert has just 1600 seats. It was built for the live theater experience: intimate, personal and immediate. While it now has a wide sparkling lobby, comfortable new seats and a state-of-the-art sound system, it is a real Broadway house, where the magic of theater, music and dance come alive. The Shubert, New Haven is operated by CAPA, a Connecticut Not-For-Profit Organization.
We are committed to integrating the arts into our diverse community whether through a stellar performance or an interactive lesson in the classroom!
The Shubert is available for Performances, Meetings, Holiday Celebrations, Private Parties, Fundraisers, and more!
Working at the Shubert is a great opportunity to go beyond the stage and learn about the arts from the inside out.
