Since its opening in 1913, the Wells Theatre has been inhabited by ghostly guests…and now it’s your turn to join them! 

Catch a glimpse into a bygone era with the Wells’ meticulously restored Beaux-Arts architecture that provides insight into Norfolk's cultural history at the start of the 20th century. Enjoy spooky thrills and embrace the unknown with behind-the-scenes glimpses into areas of the Wells not open to the public. As you dive deep into the 100-year-old theater's history, you’ll hear the stories of our ghosts and anecdotes from decades of Virginia Stage employees, audience members, and volunteers. The Wells Theatre is a National Historic Landmark with a varied history as a staple of Downtown Norfolk, now brought back to its original purpose to enrich the lives of Coastal Virginia through the Arts..
