About Attucks Theatre in Hampton Roads

Description

Thanks to the vision, tenacity and generous support of dedicated people far and wide, the curtain is going up on the historic Attucks Theatre. This state and national landmark has been carefully renovated and is ready for its encore. The Attucks Theatre was built in 1919 as a mecca for entertainment and commerce, strategically located on Church Street, the heart of the city's minority community, much like New York's Harlem. Today, the Attucks has the distinction of being the oldest remaining legitimate theatre in the nation that was completely financed, designed, constructed and operated by African-Americans.

In its heyday, the Attucks hosted the likes of Duke Ellington, Ruth Brown, Marian Anderson and Nat King Cole. Closed since the mid-1950s and neglected for decades, the Attucks is ready for its curtain call. We invite you to celebrate this vibrant new stage in the rich cultural legacy of the Attucks Theatre, once again a mecca for world-class arts and entertainment for the enjoyment of all."
