Cape Fear Regional Theatre

Cape Fear Regional Theatre is committed to presenting an annual series of professional, quality plays, performances and special events that, in addition to entertaining, will enlighten, inspire, and educate performers and audiences. CFRT seeks diversity in its artists, as well as its audiences. The Theatre brings together a unique combination of artists: professional from outside the region, regional professionals, and non-professionals. CFRT seeks to maintain a working environment of mutual respect and support, creative freedom, and collaboration. Cape Fear Regional Theatre (CFRT) is unique among regional theatres. It is not a union house though it follows professional standards. It brings in top talent from Broadway while providing a stage for CFRT trained performers. It has built its reputation on quality productions that attract over 3,500 subscribers annually. The main-stage produces a variety of classic and new works and CFRT is frequently first in line to acquire the rights to Broadway hits. Our mission is to enlighten, inspire and educate and we believe in the power of live performance that it can accomplish that goal. We are advocates for arts in education and that is precisely why our partnership with the Cumberland County School District is so important. The arts improve basic skills such as reading and mathematics as well as self-discipline and self-efficacy.
