Theatre Guild Valdosta

Theatre Guild Valdosta was organized in 1989 as an autonomous community theatre under the umbrella of L/VAC. After operating for three years as "vagabond players" without a home of its own, the group purchased the old 'Dosta Movie Theater building, located downtown on Ashley Street. A very generous gift from a supporter expedited the restoration of the theater and made possible the purchase of two adjoining buildings.

TGV now produces four main stage plays and two children's shows each year, as well as cooperating with other organizations in the area to produce dramatic presentations in other settings. For example, with the Lowndes County Historical Society, the group has recently produced two dramatic walking tours of Sunset Hill Cemetery, wherein actors portraying early settlers buried there told strolling audience groups about life in the early days of Valdosta and Lowndes County.
Contact: 24Stage (247-8243)

The Dosta Playhouse opened the spring of 1941. This theatre's architecture reflects Art Moderne style, with clean lines, curved corners and "porthole" windows. It is located at 122 N. Ashley St.

I just recently moved here from Florida, and I Love Valdosta. I'm all for getting the downtown area and Valdosta to shine. I have been told about your plays and look forward to seeing as many as possible. please advise as to how I can get on your mailing list.
Also, I have a background in the motion picture industry plus a AS degree in TV boardcasting. Is there an opportunity for a postion with your playhouse? It can be full time or part time. I just need to stay working within an artistic setting. The money, however little it may be would help as well. Thank you for your time. Please feel free to contact via the above email address.
