help bring back THE WELLS
Over the course of just three days, the Wells Theatre faced two major floods and an extraordinary response from our staff, artists, volunteers, first responders, City partners, and community. Here’s how the events unfolded and how so many people came together to protect the Wells.
Now, we need your help. As we assess the full extent of the damage and begin the long work of recovery, please consider making a gift to help Virginia Stage Company and the Wells Theatre move forward.
Saturday’s Events Canceled
Due to the severe rainstorm that moved through Norfolk on Thursday, August 20, the Wells Theatre experienced water coming into the building and onto the stage.
Our team will need the next few days to clean up and make sure the theatre is safe and ready to welcome audiences. As a result, Virginia Stage Company has made the difficult decision to cancel Curtain Up: Community Day at the Wells, scheduled for Saturday, August 22.
