Summer Repertory
Three Great Musicals, a Cabaret Series, and Two New Plays for Young Audiences Running All Summer Long!
Blockbuster Performances Every Day of the Summer!
The summer repertory at Clear Space Theatre Company is part of what makes Rehoboth Beach such a vibrant summer arts destination. With three musicals rotating through our mainstage every week, no matter what week you visit Rehoboth Beach this summer, you have the opportunity to see every one of our dynamic crowd-pleasing summer shows while you are here. See all three and enjoy the amazing range of our core summer repertory artists, as they transform from one character to the next across each of the shows. Check the calendar on the left carefully as performances play on different days of the week each week. Performances are at 7:30pm, plus occasional Saturday matinees at 2pm
In addition to our core mainstage musicals, our summer festival also includes a cabaret series featuring Broadway performers, storytelling, drag, local favorites and more, with performances on Sundays at 5pm and evenings the week prior to Labor day. Our Saturday Morning Children’s Theatre series is growing this year as well - with two 45-minute world premiere plays just for audiences ages 4 and up. Check them out on Saturday mornings, sometimes at the theater and sometimes on tour across Sussex County!

Sybil Under the Stars
Perfect for young people 4 and up!
Join us for the world premiere of an original play for young audiences inspired by real events from the Revolutionary era, part of Clear Space’s contribution to the America 250 celebrations.
Sybil Luddington was a 16 year old Connecticut girl who took a midnight ride on her horse Star one spring night in 1777 to prepare the Colonial militia to face and turn back a British invasion. Her brave and inspiring journey helped protect her community and earned praise from leaders like George Washington himself. The production features young people from the Clear Space Arts Institute on stage, performing for younger audiences at Clear Space and on tour across Sussex County.
