Center Stage strives to provide professional quality theatre to the widest audience possible; to encourage a forum for talents and skills of all ages and ethnic groups; to further arts education by a commitment to artistic excellence, community outreach, and diverse participation; to entertain patrons and to provoke thought.

Center Stage Theatre was born in 1975 in a small converted auto-body shop off Cowan Road in Gulfport, MS. Once the debut performance of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof began, Gulf Coast theatre was never the same again. Although a new theatre was built in 1989 with community support, the goal of our humble theater remains the same today – to provide quality entertainment to residents of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. To fill the seats with laughter or perhaps even tears, but to always provide a wonderful escape with a quality production. 2015 marked the 40th anniversary and it has been a Center Stage Theatre priority during that time to keep the arts alive on the Gulf Coast. The “do-good” attitude of Center Stage Theatre and the board who runs it is exemplified by numerous acts of kindnesses over the years – ranging from inviting senior citizens to attend dress rehearsal to see a musical or play at no cost, to ensuring a wholesome environment for aspiring youth actors to hone their craft.

Center Stage relies on the community and grant programs to remain an open part of the community.

Hello fellow theatre lovers,

We are excited to get back in the swing of things for our 47th Season, 2021 – 2022. We have a wonderful line up of shows for the season and one of the most popular musicals in decades for our Summer Musical Fundraiser.

We have voted in a brand-new cast of Officers and Board of Directors. Some of these names you’ve seen before and some are brand new. Regardless, we feel that this group of dedicated individuals has what it takes to get us through this unprecedented time for our theatre.
