Theatre Cedar Rapids is a nonprofit community theatre operating in downtown Cedar Rapids, Iowa, with a long-standing history dating back to its founding in 1925 by regionalist artists Grant Wood and Marvin Cone. It presents a diverse lineup of musicals, comedies, dramas, and classics during the annual season, supported by a combination of full-time staff, part-time help, contract artists, and a large roster of volunteers who contribute thousands of hours and positions each year. The organization focuses on providing high-quality live theatre and accessible programs, including education initiatives that develop life skills such as imagination, confidence, collaboration, and empathy through the performing arts. As an independently audited 501(c)3 nonprofit, Theatre Cedar Rapids serves nearly 70,000 eastern Iowans from a broad community base, aiming to enrich the region through the arts and by maintaining a busy schedule of productions and educational activities. A recent development noted in local coverage indicates the theatre secured state support for renovations, reflecting ongoing efforts to maintain and enhance its venue and programming in the community.
