Round House Theatre is a home for outstanding ensemble acting and lifelong learning. We seek to captivate audiences with stories that inspire compassion, evoke emotions, and demand conversation. We are one of the “big six” leading professional theatres in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, producing a six-show season of modern classics, new plays and musicals for more than 55,000 patrons each year at our renovated 352-seat theatre in Bethesda. Round House seeks to build one of the nation’s leading regional theatres by establishing long-term relationships with exceptional artists, and to integrate comprehensive theatre education for patrons of all ages into every aspect of our work.
Round House’s education programs serve more than 4,000 students each year at its Education Center in Silver Spring and in schools throughout Montgomery County. Cornerstone programs include Free Play, which provides free tickets to teens and college students; the year-round Teen Performance Company, which culminates in the student-produced Sarah Metzger Memorial Play; Summer Camp for students in grades K-12; and a full slate of classes for adults and youth.
