Steel Beam Theatre

From the beginning, Steel Beam Theatre has focused on presenting passionate, engaging, provoking - but always entertaining - professional theatre that's accessible and affordable to all audiences.

As the name suggests, Steel Beam provides a pillar of the community, offering a gathering place for those deeply interested in fostering the arts in downtown St. Charles as well as the surrounding cities (South Elgin, Batavia, Geneva and West Chicago), and the Fox Valley region.

STEEL: Strength, holding up, bearing responsibility, enduring

BEAM: Light, hope, joy, inspiration

THEATRE: A sacred place where we can share the mysteries, the joys, the wonders of our human experience.
