RENAISSANCE CITY THEATER INC dba. THE GRANITE THEATRE

Description

Sitting upon the highest point in downtown Westerly, Rhode Island, you will find our beautiful theater, a handsomely restored Greek Revival Church. Purchased in 1843 for a mere $200 (just under $8,000 today), it soon became the home of "The Christian Chapel in Westerly", and in 1849, the building was complete.

Later establishing itself as the Broad Street Christian Church, this historic landmark has remained relatively unchanged, aside from a remodel of the steeple which was destroyed in the Hurricane of 1938.

In the year 2000, we reopened our doors as the Granite Theatre, and have since been welcoming our community into the building for quality, year-round entertainment and educational programming. We plan to continue this tradition for many years to come!
