Alliance Theatre

Alliance Theatre (Atlanta). Begun as the Alliance Stage in 1968, the company was part of the Atlanta Arts Alliance, which included ballet and opera as well as live theatre. Two years later it adopted its present name and began offering an eclectic mix of new and classic works. The largest regional theatre in the Southeast, the Alliance is housed in the Robert W. Woodruff Arts Center, consisting of the 800‐seat Alliance Stage and the 200‐seat Hertz Stage. Two of its successful productions to transfer to New York and become hits were The Last Night of Ballyhoo and Aida.
