About the Theatre

The Harold and Sylvia Greenberg Theatre opened in March 2003 with the mission of providing the Washington, D.C. and American University communities a place to experience live performances in music, theatre and dance. The theatre was made possible by a $2 million gift from Harold and Sylvia Greenberg. Read about the theatre's grand opening and inaugural season.
