Official liability language here

Governor Northam’s phase two guidelines mandate that patrons at drive in theatres remain in their vehicles except while visiting the restroom.

Beauty and The Best JR, The Wizard of OZ Jr, and a daytime Americana sing along. Visit the shows page for more information.

These safety procedures were developed with the guidance of our medical advisory board. CLICK HERE to read more about this team.

After much careful consideration we have decided to approach the rest of the year season by season. We made this choice to ensure that we can stay compliant with government safety regulations while creating experiences that are enjoyable for our patrons. We’ll announce our fall and Christmas plans closer to time.

You can purchase tickets online, by calling the box office, or submit this form to be contacted by a member of our box office staff.

In accordance with the current CDC and Virginia state government health and safety guidelines concessions will not be available.

Shows are 60-90 minutes in one act.

The junior versions of these shows are shortened versions of the original productions. We chose to keep performances around 60 minutes to cut down on the need for patrons to use the restrooms.

The Wizard of OZ will begin at 8:45 PM and Beauty and The Beast JR will begin at 8:30 PM.
