Our History

About the Carlisle Theatre

Located in the heart of Carlisle, the historic Carlisle Theatre has been referred to as “the gem of downtown”.

The Carlisle Theatre is one of the principal forces behind the revitalization of downtown Carlisle. Established in 1939, renovated in 1993, we remain Carlisle’s downtown source for entertainment. The Carlisle Regional Performing Arts Center presents musical concerts, performances, films, live theatrical productions, and programming for children and families.

The Theatre is also available for corporate events and meetings, community events, weddings, and much, much more!

One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Cast & Crew Announcement
Players on High | 26/27 Mainstage Season

September 4-13 (7 Performances)
On Sale July 1: carlisletheatre.showare.com/Cuckoo

“After being convicted of a petty crime, a charming, rebellious rogue named McMurphy contrives to serve his short sentence in an airy mental institution rather than in a prison. This, he soon learns, was a mistake. He immediately clashes with the authoritarian head nurse, Nurse Ratched. Despite Ratched’s strict reign, McMurphy quickly takes over the yard, leading others out of introversion, staging a revolt so that they can see the World Series on television, and arranging a rollicking midnight party with liquor and women. But McMurphy’s brash insubordination will have its consequences. This stage adaptation of Ken Kesey’s celebrated novel explores the brutality of life in a mental institution with humor, candor and unforgettable characters. This captivating adaptation for stage by Dale Wasserman premiered on Broadway at the Cort Theatre on November 13, 1963.”
