Introduction

Mission Statement
To present quality theater to Bay Area audiences and offer theatrical training and mentoring opportunities in a creative and supportive environment.

What's in a Name?
For the Novato Theater Company, the answer is easy. Talent. Energy. Dedication. Backed by 90 years of history, we are committed to providing outstanding community theatre to the San Francisco Bay Area.

We have our origins in 1919, as a section of the Novato Improvement Club. In 1947, we were incorporated as a non-profit corporation under the title of Novato Community, Inc.--better known as the Novato Community Players! In 2004 we changed our name to Novato Theater Company." Our previous theater was built as part of the Novato Community House in 1924. In 2006 we finished construction of our new theater, the Novato Theater Company Playhouse."

Today, the NTC draws casts and audiences from all over the San Francisco Bay Area, who enjoy our quality productions.


Great Reviews On-Stage and Off!

Both in front of the spotlight and at any of our social functions, our year is a busy one. On stage, we offer five full-length productions each season. Off stage, we enjoy a summer picnic, our annual installation dinner for newly elected officers, a Holiday party, and, of course, those fun-filled after-rehearsal and cast parties!
