Generations have experienced spectacular productions as audience members, as well as the thrill of collaborating and creating onstage and backstage. As a fundamental part of Winston-Salem’s cultural scene, we invite everyone in the community to exercise their imaginations, stretch their creative muscles, and experience the transformative magic of live theatre.

89th Season!
Now Playing! The Little Theatre will bring Ripcord by David Lindsey-Abaire to the stage. This is a thrilling tale of two senior women who become entangled in an intense rivalry that escalates into a deadly game of one-upmanship as they compete for the best room at their senior living facility (May 10-12 & 16-19, 2024; Hanesbrands Theatre).
The season will conclude with the inspiring jukebox musical, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, with book by Douglas McGrath and music and lyrics by Gerry Goffin & Carole King, Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil. From Carole Klein, a spunky, young songwriter from Brooklyn with a unique voice, to Carole King, one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history, this musical takes you on the ride of a lifetime (June 7-9, 13-16 & 20-23, 2024; Hanesbrands Theatre).

The Little Theatre of Winston-Salem Announces New Workshop Series
The Little Theatre of Winston-Salem will offer a series of free “how to” classes for the community beginning in May. The LTWS Workshop Series will explore and teach various aspects of technical theatre, from scenic painting to auditions to working as a backstage dresser and more. Everyone is welcome (please check age restrictions) and no experience is necessary. Sign-ups are available online at LTofWS.org or by calling (336) 725-4001.
“Historically, existing Little Theatre volunteers have taught new volunteers how to ‘do theatre’ – whether on stage, backstage or in the shops – and our goal for this series is to continue that tradition,” explained LTWS Volunteer Coordinator Kristina Ebbink. “Through a variety of ‘how to’ classes, we’ll be teaching new skills to anyone in the community who wants to learn. They’ll meet our staff and other volunteers. Maybe they’ll want to use their new skills to volunteer or maybe it will just be a fun experience. Either way, they’ll know a bit more about how our shows are brought to the stage and what an important role our volunteers play in the process.”
Details and registration for these classes will be provided soon.
All LTWS “How To” Workshops are designed for the community and no previous experience is required to
participate. While there is no cost for any of the workshops, space is limited, so reservations are required. To RSVP, please visit LTofWS.org or call (336) 725-4001.
