WELCOME

The Clemson Little Theatre

Begun in 1931, The Clemson Little Theatre is one of the oldest community theatres in South Carolina. Originally started by friends of Clemson University, many of its early productions (even into the 1970s) were performed in buildings on and around campus. Since 1992 CLT has made its home in its own theatre, the Pendleton Playhouse in lovely and historic Pendleton, SC. —————————————

Revealing Friday! March 31

It is our pleasure to invite you to the reveal of our new outdoor building signs and our 2023-2024 Season of Shows on Friday, March 31, from 6:00-7:00pm.

Special Signage Reveal Event

On June 22, 2002, John Acorn installed the beautiful theatre signs on the exterior of the Clemson Little Theatre building. They have been a true representation of our place in this town. These signs have withstood the test of time through all 20+ years, with very little maintenance. What a testimony to great craftsmanship! But, sadly, these signs have seen their day. After two years of searching, we found Knothead’s Custom Woodworking. Lee Ethridge and Mark Growden are two local craftsmen who care as much about quality as John Acorn did, so many years ago. On Friday evening, March 31st at 6pm, the new signs will be revealed. They will be very similar to the originals, but with an updated Clemson Little Theatre logo. These signs will be revealed by the new designers and some special guests.

New Season Reveal Event

Immediately following the sign reveal, we will share what we believe is an exciting new season of shows, along with some announcements about new changes to our theatre and our programming. This event will take place in Cox Hall starting right after the sign reveal, about 6:30pm. We hope you will also be able to stay for this event and stick around for a little while afterwards for refreshments and conversation. We appreciate each of you and we hope you will join us for this very special evening! Our Reveals will also be on Facebook LIVE starting at 6:00 PM. ————————————— It’s a musical for Spring!
