Building
The historic Art Deco Building at 233 Pearl Street was built in 1927. TheaterWorks operated in the building in the 1980s, finally purchasing it outright in 1993. In 2008, the building was renamed City Arts on Pearl. TheaterWorks converted the building into an arts center, now home to numerous nonprofit organizations as well as performance, gallery, office, rehearsal, and storage spaces. The theater itself is in the basement of the building and is a small intimate space. It seats 195 people and is only 8 rows back in any direction.
The large, brick building is in Art Deco style with decorative Moorish Revival touches.
