Queensbury Theatre

The Award-winning Queensbury Theatre is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which offers professional and educational theatre programs, located in CityCentre. ​ With the desire to bring a new theatrical experience to Houston and to contribute to the future of the art form, Queensbury Theatre strives to produce, create and cultivate professional, ground-breaking, and affordable musicals and plays on an intimate level. Queensbury Theatre houses and operates the Tribble School for the Performing Arts, a program which serves 350-400 students and their families per semester. ​ Queensbury Theatre, formerly Country Playhouse, was founded in early 1956, where it opened with its inaugural play, Personal Appearance by Lawrence Riley. That first show was performed at Memorial Drive Elementary School. Since then, Country Playhouse moved a few times from Veterans Hall to what is now a parking lot in Memorial City Mall. In 1981, the theatre finally found a place to call home in Town & Country on Queensbury Lane. ​ In 2015, Queensbury moved into its current state-of-the-art facility which features a 250 seat proscenium theatre and a 100 seat black box theatre.
