The Francis Wilson Playhouse continues to preserve the tradition of classic stage performance in Clearwater. This vintage entertainment venue balances its impressive heritage with a hint of modern flourishes while never betraying the artistic integrity of the playwrights, performers and directors who create what is eventually presented on stage. The theater boasts some of the best and most respected actors in the area who have worked hard to build a reputation for the best local theater experience in Clearwater.
