Reno Little Theater produced it first play, Three Cornered Moon, at the University of Nevada in 1935, making it Reno's (and Nevada's) oldest community theater, and one of the country's oldest. In 1941, Reno Little Theater purchased Dania Hall, at Sierra and 7th Streets and, with community funding and volunteer labor, remodeled the building and finished the interior as its first theater. The building served Reno Little Theater for over 50 years before being demolished to make room for a casino parking garage. We are currently designing a new theater, to be built on our property on Pueblo Street.
Current Reno Little Theater's productions are performed at Procter R. Hug High School, located at 2880 Sutro Street, on the corner of North McCarran and Sutro Street (Map). We gratefully acknowledge the support that we have received from Hug.
Reno Little Theater produces five plays during a season that runs from September until June. Plays open with a Saturday evening performance and run for three weekends. Friday and Saturday performances start at 7:30 pm and Sunday afternoon performances are at 2:00 pm.
When you turn into the parking lot entrance on Sutro closest to McCarran, the theater building is directly ahead of you. Come down the covered walkway to the entrance. Handicap parking is available, and the theater is suitable for wheelchairs.
We also produce a number of special events during the year. Keep an eye on these pages for details.
Reno Little Theater is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization. Donations are tax-deductible. We welcome volunteers in all areas of community theater. We hope that you will browse through our pages here and contact us if you have questions.
P.S. Some people prefer the British spelling of "theatre" and look for us as Reno Little Theatre. Although we prefer the good 'ol American spelling, we include this text so that search engines will find us with either spelling. We can also be found on the web at RenoLittleTheatre.Org.
