Serving Webster, New York for nearly 90 years and still going strong.

1936 was a memorable year, the Statue of Liberty turned 50, the Hoover Dam was completed. The Academy Awards officially named their gold statuettes “Oscars.” The Yankees won their 5th World Championship. And we, the Webster Theatre Guild, were born. Founded in 1936 by Erva Smith and Rev. John Schott, the Webster Theatre Guild is a nonprofit, volunteer-based organization, and our mission is to provide area residents the opportunity to both attend and to participate in quality presentations of a cross section of the finest theatrical works available.  The Guild also supports artistic endeavors and development through student scholarships, and grants to the Webster PTSA and Webster Central School District.

QUALITY THEATER

The Guild provides performance and production opportunities for members of the greater Rochester community with Broadway caliber productions.

SCHOLARSHIPS

We offer scholarships to graduating High School seniors in Webster and the surrounding areas of Rochester, NY.

The Guild survives today by the dedication of members from our community. If you want to get involved as a volunteer or sponsor, please contact the Board of Directors today.
