Magenta theater is available for virtually any type of event, except:
-Movies (We do not have a large screen or licenses for that activity.)
-Weddings / Receptions / Private Parties
-Political Events
The hourly rate to rent the theater for performances begins at $225/hr, with a five hour minimum, for Thursday through Sunday. Load-in, load-out, rehearsal, and tech rehearsal hourly rate negotiable when related to a performance rental, which begins as $500/day Monday through Wednesday.
We prioritize Magenta Theater productions, which include a 5-show season and additional productions such as improv and staged readings. Currently, the theater has limited capacity for rental engagements, and considers them on a case-by-case basis. Please reach out to Managing Artistic Director Caleb Bourgeois at md@magentatheater.com for availability.
To rent out Magenta Theater, you must have or purchase a minimum $2 million event liability insurance policy that names Magenta Theater as additional insured for the duration of the rental period.
Magenta's audience can hold a total of 142 audience members in our BRAND NEW seats!
When no other set pieces are on the stage, the dimensions are 37 ' wide x 20' deep. There are exits on both the stage right and stage left sides, with a hallway behind to cross between the two. Stairs come up from the basement/green room on both sides.
PLEASE NOTE: Set pieces/walls may be on the stage which will reduce available space. Check with us for estimates.

One tech operator is included in the price of theater rental and will oversee any use of the boards. Additional tech time is $25 an hour for anything outside the normal setup.
