We hope you’ll stay in touch with us. In addition to our various online outlets (@GenericTheater on Instagram, Facebook, and elsewhere) we encourage you to sign-up for our email newsletter. We’ll keep you informed of upcoming productions, audition notices, special events, and more. 

We’re literally underground — in the basement of Chrysler Hall — at least for a few more weeks.

Scope Garage Parking — Drive into the Scope Parking Garage ( St Pauls Blvd & E Bute St), stay to the right and drive down the ramp to the bottom level  (U), and follow the Generic Theater signs around the perimeter (past the exit ramp) until you reach the underground theater entrance inside the garage.

Chrysler Corner Stairwells — Starting from the fountain plaza on the west side of the building, approach the Chrysler Hall Box Office and  enter via one of the corner doors flanking the ticketing windows (see arrows in picture), walk down the stairs to the bottom level, and follow the Generic Theater signs through the garage to the underground theater entrance.

Generic Theater is a volunteer organization, so we need many hands to mount a successful production. Whether you’re a veteran designer, builder, or stage manager, or you’ve never worked on an show before, we can find a place for you. Learn more about our many volunteer opportunities and sign-up for upcoming shows. 

We’re looking to build our audience, expand our reach into the communities that we serve, and bring attention to the enormous talent we are blessed to have in Norfolk and throughout Hampton Roads. As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, we depend on your financial support to fulfill this mission. Please consider supporting Generic Theater with a tax-deductible contribution.
