About Us
Bristol Valley Theater (BVT) is a professional summer theater in Naples, NY, at the south end of Canandaigua Lake in the Finger Lakes region, one hour south of Rochester and one hour north of Corning. Performances run from June through August. Five shows are produced in 13 weeks, plus one children’s show that runs two weeks with a week of local touring. The schedule is fast-paced; the atmosphere is welcoming, hard-working, professional and fun. Housing is provided by BVT. We are a non-Equity theater, but some special appearance contracts are offered to Equity actors.

Mission
The Friends of Bristol Valley Playhouse Foundation, Inc. is a not-for-profit membership with the three-fold mission of producing life-affirming theater for a rural and regional audience, presenting a variety of performing arts, and providing training to those wishing to become active in the theater.
