Founded in 2008, the Greenhouse Theater Center was the original home for the Body Politic Theater and Victory Gardens Theater.

​The Wendy and William Spatz Charitable Foundation purchased the theater building from Victory Gardens Theater with a promise to maintain the current function of the building as a multi-stage theater space. The Greenhouse Theater Center is as an "incubator" for small to mid-size theater companies, hence its name.

​This multi-stage artists' space provides five stages, dressing and staging areas, as well as, office space for resident companies to grow.
