The Gamm Theatre opened its commodious yet intimate new performance space in the Pawtucket Armory Annex in late November 2003, just in time for the premiere of Dylan Thomas’ A Child’s Christmas in Wales. In the months preceding the move, Gamm staff and a host of volunteers worked around the clock building and furnishing the 137-seat venue. What once housed the Pawtucket Police Department’s cache of repossessed vehicles is now unrecognizable as the theater’s new home! Replete with glass-windowed lobby, on-site box office, ample restrooms, actors’ dressing room, green room and a black-box performance space, the new Gamm has 80% more seats than its previous Providence location; yet retains its hallmark intimacy. The Gamm is excited about the opportunity to engage and enrich the community through affordable entertainment and educational programming.
