Located at 507 S 3rd Street, Renton, Renton Civic Theatre invites the community to be part of its ongoing renaissance. After undergoing a seismic shift in leadership in mid-2024, the future of this treasured community space was uncertain. When a group of local theatre enthusiasts stepped up to right the ship, they brought with them varied expertise, energy, and unmatched enthusiasm. Together, they have cleaned and restored the RCT space and launched a completely new season for 2025.
