History

Started in a second floor walkup space that seated 50 in 1985, by Kay and Jim Thigpen, Trustus has
evolved to a half of a million dollar enterprise over the last three decades. Now at its new home on Lady Street in the Congaree Vista, Trustus Theatre boasts two performing venues with the Thigpen Main Stage seating 132, and the Trustus Side Door Theatre seating 50. The underlying principal of Trustus has always been to bring the best of the newest and original plays, to an audience craving professional theatre in a setting that is comfortable and unique.
