After more than 60 years of professional theatre, dining, and community in the heart of Chesterfield, the Board of Directors of Swift Creek Mill Theatre has made the difficult decision to pause operations, effective May 9, 2026.
This is not a decision we made easily, and it is not the end of the story. The Board is committed to a thoughtful, honest assessment of how Swift Creek Mill Theatre can build a sustainable future — one worthy of the legacy you’ve helped us create. A formal decision on the path forward will be made at our August board meeting.
Our youth production of The Elves and the Shoemaker continues as planned. And before we go quiet, we want to see you — final performances of Pump Boys and Dinettes this week, our Wine Dinner on April 30, and the Cabaret If I Sing on May 8 & 9 are still ahead.
Patrons with questions about tickets, gift cards, flex passes, and dining tickets have three options now — hold, donate, or request a refund — with a fourth option in the works. Full details at swiftcreekmill.com.
To our patrons, our donors, our volunteers, and every person who has ever walked through our doors: thank you. Sixty years of this community’s support has meant everything.
We hope this is not goodbye — just see you soon.
