- Description:
- Encyclopedia article about the Alliance Theatre. The Alliance Theatre, the largest regional theater in the Southeast, is recognized nationwide as a great critical and commercial success. More than 255,000 people attend Alliance productions each season at the theater's home in the Woodruff Arts Center on Peachtree Street in midtown Atlanta, adjacent to the High Museum of Art. The company shows eleven productions annually: each season the Alliance Stage produces six plays, the Hertz Stage produces three plays, and the Alliance Children's Theatre produces two plays. In addition, the company offers a yearly playwriting competition for graduate students and a summer workshop, known as the Collision Project, for teenagers to learn about the components of theater and then create and perform their own play.
