What We Do
You can’t look at the skyline of Louisville without taking note of its beautiful bridges. Around 220,000 vehicles use those bridges daily. They are the lifeblood of our city, connecting us together, moving us towards our future. This Bridge Theatre strives to be such a connector for the theatre community of Louisville. We are in service to you; connecting audiences to artists, local theatre companies to each other, and the present to our future.
