HAYWOOD ARTS REPERTORY THEATER

HART, or Haywood Arts Regional Theatre, is nestled in the shadow of Cold Mountain right off of the Main Street in historic downtown Waynesville. HART has been serving its community for over 35 years as the premium theatre of Waynesville, NC. With 3 performance spaces and a recent addition of an outdoor stage, HART is able to offer year-round quality theatre to patrons and artists alike.

Our Main stage offers the traditional proscenium seating with a handcrafted barn style auditorium of 255 seats. Our Fangmeyer theatre offers audiences and artists unique opportunities with an open seating plan allowing for seating in the round, thrust, alleyway, and everything in between! Our Feichter Studio offers a small black box experience with the ability to seat approximately 70 and is occasionally used for our studio season. HART has also begun to explore outdoor theatre and hopes to offer more outdoor performance opportunities in the HART amphitheater located in between our two buildings.

In addition to our main season and studio season, HART also offers incredible opportunities for education through our Kids at HART program. With a full line up of classes, 2 shows every spring and fall semester, and summer theatre camps offered every summer, Kids at HART is leading the way in Waynesville for Theatre education.
