Waukesha Civic Theatre

Since 1957, Waukesha Civic Theatre (WCT) has been an integral part of the Waukesha community, providing high-quality live entertainment and enriching educational opportunities in the performing arts. Located in the heart of historic downtown Waukesha, WCT operates as a nonprofit organization with a mission to entertain, enrich, engage, and challenge the community through dynamic theatrical programming and inclusive outreach.

WCT’s commitment to community is reflected not only in its performances but also in its robust educational programs and partnerships. Through year-round theatre classes, camps, and initiatives like the ACAP PlayMakers and Civic Senior Players, the theatre fosters accessibility, creativity, and lifelong learning. With deep roots in local collaboration and volunteer support, WCT continues to serve as a cultural cornerstone, bringing people together and inspiring future generations of artists and audiences alike.
