Wine Down Wednesdays

Looking for a fun way to celebrate the middle of the work week? Then come on down to the Wells for our 'Wine Down Wednesdays!' Every Wednesday from 5 - 7pm the staff and doors of the Wells Theatre will welcome folks to wine, music, and great company (show or no show!) to enjoy the beautiful Wells Theatre while we celebrate the little victories of making it through the work week.

Doors open to anyone who would like to come, no ticket necessary, and the bar will be open serving wine and any other drinks you'd like to enjoy with your friends.

Step out of your everyday and into Norfolk’s historic gem to relax!

Mistletoe Market!

Virginia Stage Company is proud to partner with local artists, artisans, and crafters for its second Seasonal Mistletoe Market to be held during Norfolk’s Grand Illumination Parade! If you’re looking for a warm and wonderful place, full of holiday cheer and historical theatre history to enjoy while observing the Grand Norfolk Parade then look no further! 

The bar will be open with warm drinks such as coffee and hot chocolate as well as our regular beverages and snacks for parade attendees while they wait for the Parade to pass by on Granby Street. Enjoy the opportunity to get your photo with Santa as his ‘Ho Ho Ho’s grace our historical theater lobby. Coloring sheets and take-home ornament crafts for the little ones, and one of the most beautiful marketplaces you’ll ever see! Nothing says Holidays from the Heart like homemade and well-crafted art pieces from Hampton Roads locals…and these artists will have their wares on sale for all guests!

Holiday favorite The Doorway Singers will be caroling down Tazewell and Granby, making their way to and from the Wells.

Doors will open to the public at 4pm, photos with Santa will be available until 6pm just before the parade starts and our doors will remain open throughout the parade and downtown holiday festivities. No tickets required for entry, just swing by and take photos in our historic Wells Theatre, enjoy our arts and crafts, partake in the Mistletoe Market and who knows; maybe if you’re lucky you’ll catch a glimpse of one of our most Infamous Holiday Spirits…The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come!
