The Contra Costa Civic Theatre celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2010. From My Fair Lady to Thoroughly Modern Millie, the plays here reflect a wide range of styles and tastes. This building was erected in 1971 to act as the permanent home for the Theatre after moving between many different venues across the city, including the building that now houses Atlas Liquors. Box-office sales, tuition fees and donations all go toward keeping the Theatre open and active. Youth programs, including summer camp, drama and music classes, take place here as well.
