Iowa's Premiere Professional Theatre Company
The Old Creamery Theatre Company is proud to be the oldest professional theatre company in the state of Iowa. Read about our history. Since 1983, The Company has operated in agreement with the
Actors' Equity Association, which gives the theatre access to a vast pool of professional actors throughout the United States.
The Creamery performs seasonally on the Price Creek Stage and the Depot Studio Theatre. This theatre space, located outside the historic village of Amana, is just ten minutes north of Interstate 80, thirty minutes southwest of
Cedar Rapids, and 30 minutes northwest of Iowa City. Built in 1988, the facility houses a 300-seat auditorium known for its spacious and comfortable seating.
During a season that begins in the spring and runs through December, many Creamery patrons take advantage of the quaint shops and traditional German-style restaurants of The Amana Colonies before coming to the theatre for an evening
of great entertainment.
