As the oldest chartered community theatre in Mississippi, the Vicksburg Theatre Guild has offered live theatre for over seventy-five years, first on the original Playhouse stage on Bowmar Avenue and now at our Parkside Playhouse location.
The objectives of the Vicksburg Little Theatre Guild (VLTG), now referred to as the Vicksburg Theatre Guild (VTG), as shown in our 1936 Charter of Incorporation, are:
to stimulate an interest in local, original, and other dramatic, literary and musical productions, to give the people of Vicksburg, Mississippi, the opportunity to self-expression in the various phases of dramatic activity, to present amateur productions, and to foster professional productions that possess dramatic and artistic merit, to furnish training in acting, stagecraft and playwriting, to provide facilities for the expression of art in the community, and generally to stimulate an interest in the drama.
