About Roberts Mainstage At Olney Theatre Center

Roberts Mainstage At Olney Theatre Center is the primary performance stage within Olney Theatre Center, a professional producing theater campus at 2001 Olney Sandy Spring Rd in Olney, Maryland. Olney Theatre Center traces its origins to 1938, when it began as a summer theater, and the current Roberts Mainstage building was constructed in later decades as the campus developed. The venue is operated by Olney Theatre Center for the Arts, a nonprofit professional theater and one of the State Theaters of Maryland, with a capacity of approximately 400–500 seats.

The Mainstage presents seated theatrical productions as its core programming, including plays, musicals, seasonal productions, holiday shows, and new-work development. As one of the leading professional theaters in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, Olney Theatre Center has grown from a summer theater into a year-round producing organization. The Roberts Mainstage is known as the campus’s flagship space for its largest productions and musicals, including major works such as Les Misérables and seasonally programmed shows like Senior Class.

The experience is shaped by a compact proscenium-style theater, a wooded campus atmosphere, and a short walk from the rear parking lot to the Mainstage entrance.

Transit: Montgomery County Ride On bus service operates in the area, but public transit options are limited in suburban Olney. For most attendees, driving or rideshare will be the more practical choice.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are feasible at the campus. Because of the suburban setting, return pickups after performances can take longer than they would at an urban venue, so it helps to build in extra time after the show.
