Bellingham Theatre Guild — Attraction in Bellingham

Ohmygosh! I had no idea Bellingham had such a HUGE trove of talent! We watched a performance of the Stephen Sondheim musical "Into the Woods" and we were amazed by not only the acting but the singing of all (and seriously, I mean all) the performers. I confess that we were nervous about committing to such a long show at a theatre we had never visited before, but our fears were quickly dispelled. We had a great time.

Not only was the show excellent, but the staff were very friendly and helpful, directing us to the restrooms before the show, and to the reception area for free (!) decaf coffee, water, and chocolates during the intermission. Although the (clean and well-kept) ladies restroom did have a line during intermission, they have 4 stalls IIRC and the line moved fast. Spacing between rows of seats was a little tight for us (in our family of four we're all 6 feet tall or taller) but not seriously uncomfortable.

Our show was on a Friday at 7:30pm. We parked at the "church" building at 5:30pm (nice adjacent parking lot), walked to Soy House for dinner, meandered back with a side trip to Elizabeth Park, then to the theatre for the show. A lovely way to spend an evening. We are thrilled to have Bellingham Theatre Guild in our town! Highly...

This is a remarkable volunteer institution. Long established and steadily growing, they have owned their building, a restored and updated church, for many years, and in 2016-2017 it was substantially modernized and updated including an elevator. In spite of the venue improvements, the tickets are cheap (yes, I wrote cheap) and with a county of over 200,000 to select from, they consistently have excellent performers, though always amateur. We have been season ticket holders for two years, and have always found the plays to be worth the price of admission, and at least half the time, more. We like the way you can "meet the cast" after the show, and we find the level of performance always improving. This is an inspiring way to run an all-volunteer...

A true Bellingham treasure. The Theatre Guild has been entertaining with live theatre for many years. They do both dramas and musicals. The facility is an old church and looks fabulous for its age. Lots of parking, and they even have an elevator for their patrons. The staff is very professional and friendly. Ticket prices are truly very reasonable for live theatre. The theatre is a community theatre, and the performers are a wide selection of amateurs and professionals. Also, the set builders , costumes, makeup, and lighting are all top professional. They provide old and new shows...
