ABOUT THIS THEATRE
Description
The Playhouse on Rodney Square, formerly the DuPont Theatre and the Playhouse Theatre, in Wilmington, Delaware, presents national touring productions of Broadway shows and is the oldest continuously operating legitimate theatre in the country. Located in the luxurious Hotel du Pont, the brightest stars of stage and screen have lit the Wilmington sky and graced the lovely 1,252-seat Victorian theatre since 1913. Known to residents of Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland as "Delaware's Broadway Experience," the DuPont Theatre presents an outstanding six-show Broadway Series, and an acclaimed Children's Series that entertains and inspires more than 40,000 children per year.
