Dalton Little Theatre

Dalton Little Theatre’s mission is to entertain and educate audiences, participants and the community through a broad spectrum of theatrical opportunities. Dalton Little Theatre, DLT, celebrates being the oldest community theater in Georgia. With its first documented performance in 1869, the organization began as The Dalton Amateurs, and continued as The Sophoclean Dramatic Club, and The Dalton Players, before becoming Dalton Little Theatre in 1955. It performed continuously except for breaks for WWI and WWII. The organization formally incorporated in 1958, and found its first home in 1981 when it converted the former firehouse built in 1888 into The Firehouse Theatre, where it has been since.
