1. The Colonial Theatre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 75 reviews
The 658-seat Colonial Theatre is located in the heart of downtown Phoenixville, Pennsylvania at 227 Bridge Street. Opened in 1903, the Colonial is the last surviving of four theatres once existing in the borough and is the only theatre of its kind in Chester County. In its early days, the Colonial was home to live stage shows, vaudeville acts and musicals including appearances by Harry Houdini and Mary Pickford. Real movie buffs know that the Colonial was featured in the 1958 science fiction classic, "The Blob," starring Steve McQueen and filmed in and around Phoenixville. The theatre is owned and operated by the Association for the Colonial Theatre (ACT), a nonprofit corporation, which re-opened the theatre in 1999. The Colonial's programming includes art and independent films seven nights a week, classic films, cult & horror films, programs for young audiences, live concerts, and community events. ACT is committed to the full restoration of the Colonial as a cultural arts center.

The non-profit Colonial Theatre is a great venue in Phoenixville! It offers both live concerts and movies, including silent movies accompanied by the only publicly performing theatre pipe organ in Chester County. Movies are both first run and classic films. The costs are not high, and I became a member to get even more perks. Strongly sugegst a visit to the Colonial.

Couples night out to see A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder. I never heard of it but it was wonderful. Outstanding cast, one of the actors portrays 7 different roles. Forge Theatre competes well with all the local entertainment, and at that price you can afford dinner beforehand. Park at the nearby church and enjoy the short walk.

Discovered this shop as we strolled down Bridge Street after dinner. Wide selection of tasty favorites (turtles) and unusual combos (chocolate bark with blueberries). Friendly service. Will buy here again.
