Founded in 1937, WCLOC Theater Company, Worcester’s oldest community theater, entertains, informs, and nurtures local actors, writers, musicians, production enthusiasts and audiences of the City of Worcester and throughout Central New England. We’re passionate about building an inclusive creative environment that promotes and values diversity through the production of high-quality, affordable musicals, plays and children’s educational workshops.
The Grandview Playhouse has been owned and operated by WCLOC since 1948. This historic building now hosts four in-house productions each season. In addition to popular musical theater, WCLOC has expanded their seasonal repertoire to include non-musicals. In recent years, WCLOC has staged popular comedies, classic American dramas, and Pulitzer Prize winning plays, as well as new works by local playwrights.
