I starting going to Trinity when I was in college and the theater was at Trinity Square. I'm still learning, and the theater is still moving. More

I have just finished this years subscription to Trinity and all the plays were terrific as usual! Chris Columbus is not afraid to tackle controversial subject matter as well as the standards. Always thought provoking, well acted, and a wonderful evening out. Well Done! More

It is refreshing to see a theater that has a resident company and is willing to take risks on new theater. We saw a new play, which is very good. It is a great theater to see and to support. More

It's been a long slide down. What used to be great is now, at its best, ordinary. At its worst, trivial. Too bad. More

I have seen many plays here year after year and have yet to see a bad performance. Every seat in the theater is good, the theaters are on the small side so you are always close to the action.Every year A Christmas Carol is performed here and every year is different if you happen to be in providence at Christmas...

If you haven't explored Trinity, do it this year! Their selections are both traditional and new. We saw Sparrow Grass. It was excellent. The actors were terrific, and the play thought-provoking. It is the first of three new plays written by Curt Columbus, and I encourage everyone to go. More

We go to most of the plays here. The small space means that every seat is a good seat. There are so many very good actors who put all they have into each play. We cannot believe what they do with their sets. They don't have room for major changes but somehow manage to do a lot with a little... More
