From opera and vaudeville to theatricals and movies, the history of The Colonial Theatre is a vibrant, living, evolving story.
Opened in 1902 as an affordable alternative to the New York City theater scene, The Colonial thrived with live performance and silent films before blossoming into a mid-century movie palace. Today, people love our varied slate of concerts, live events, and first-run, classic and arthouse films.
The Colonial is the heartbeat of Bridge Street and the cultural soul of Phoenixville. With more than 4,000 presentations each year, there's something for everyone at this historic entertainment venue.
Come have some fun with us - and make great memories for your story.
