About
Stage Coach Theatre has been producing plays for 32 consecutive seasons in the Treasure Valley. We are dedicated to bringing quality contemporary live theatre that reflects and celebrates the human spirit for, by and accessible to the community.
History:
Stage Coach Theatre was established as a non-profit 501(C)3 corporation in 1981.The original name was The Stagecoach Inc. It had nothing to do with doing western themed plays, but referred to traveling to other communities. The logo on their first sign was an actual stagecoach. The reference was a bit obscure and caused no end of confusion because of the Stagecoach Inn Restaurant in Garden City.
In the early '90s, the by-laws were revised and the Stagecoach name was split into Stage Coach. It was felt the because we were not traveling, the reference to the conveyance didn't mean anything to the public, and that perhaps because we were "coaches of stage work" the name "Stage Coach" would make more sense and separate us a little more in the public's mind from the restaurant.
