Bedford Playhouse

Bedford Playhouse is a vibrant cultural center, state-of-the-art cinema, and community hub, offering outstanding films, live performances, and engaging arts and educational programming. More than just a movie theater, it is a welcoming space where visitors can relax, socialize, and experience exceptional entertainment. Located in the heart of Bedford Village, the Playhouse has been modernized and upgraded with the support of the community, ensuring an accessible and enriching experience for all. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, it thrives through memberships, grants, donations, and ticket sales.

With a commitment to bringing unique programming to the region, Bedford Playhouse partners with thought leaders, creatives, and community organizations to offer events and discussions not found elsewhere. The venue features a 37-ft-wide screen with Dolby Atmos surround sound in its main theater, along with two smaller theaters for intimate viewing experiences. Guests can also enjoy drinks and small bites at the Playhouse Café and Bambi's Bar, an inviting spot to gather before or after a film. Originally opened in 1947, the Playhouse was revitalized in 2015 through the dedication of local residents, led by John Farr, transforming it into the thriving cultural hub it is today.
