We’re literally underground — in the basement of Chrysler Hall.

SCOPE GARAGE  — Drive into the Scope Parking Garage (St Pauls Blvd & E Bute St), STAY TO THE RIGHT & DRIVE DOWN THE RAMP to the bottom level (U), and follow the Generic Theater signs around the perimeter (past the exit ramp) until you reach the underground theater entrance inside the garage.

CHRYSLER STAIRWELLS — Starting from the fountain plaza on the west side of the building, approach the Chrysler Hall Box Office and  enter via one of the RED CORNER DOORS flanking the ticketing windows (see arrows in picture), walk down the stairs to the bottom level, and follow the Generic Theater signs through the garage to the underground theater entrance.

Generic Theater is a volunteer organization, so we need many hands to mount a successful production. Whether you’re a veteran designer, builder, or stage manager, or you’ve never worked on an show before, we can find a place for you. Learn more about our many volunteer opportunities and sign-up for upcoming shows. 

We’re looking to build our audience, expand our reach into the communities that we serve, and bring attention to the enormous talent we are blessed to have in Norfolk and throughout Hampton Roads. As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, we depend on your financial support to fulfill this mission. Please consider supporting Generic Theater with a tax-deductible contribution.

We hope you’ll stay in touch with us. In addition to our various online outlets (@GenericTheater on Instagram, Facebook, and elsewhere) we encourage you to sign-up for our email newsletter. We’ll keep you informed of upcoming productions, audition notices, special events, and more. 

Buy early and save! Tickets can be ordered online, with discounts for advance purchases, groups of 10+, military, senior, and student patrons. Tickets can also be purchased in-person beginning 1 hour before performances at our underground theater box office. Come out and see a show!
