Thanks for stopping by The Comfort Theatre Company...
We’re glad you found us!

It has been said that live performances should “change the air around you.”  It should touch a spot inside of you, reminding you of a similar place and time in your life and somehow leave you changed. 

In 1997 we only had a dream of a theatre company--a new and exciting concept grown from a lifetime of experience as artists.    We had been involved in successful ventures for over 20 years, but the South Dakota Arts Council gave us the backing to be an independent, multi-faceted company.  We produced “Always Patsy Cline”, the immensely popular musical play that ran for nine years and several revivals.

Today we offer a “menu” of musical events: “East of Westreville” is a collection of bluegrass, blues, gospel & country music featuring Boyd Bristow, Kaija & Bonde and Al Slaathaug--now also available with fiddler Kenny Putnam.  “Of Thee I Swing” is an original review that recreates a 1940’s Broadway cabaret show, performed by Kaija Bonde & Gene McGowan’s Jazz Trio.

We hope that you enjoy what you see here and that it will inspire you to come see The Comfort Theatre onstage. Click here to read comments from visitors to our website.  There is also form where you can leave a message, too.

Here we are hundreds of shows and tens of thousands of patrons after opening night and we feel like we're just getting started. Who knows… you may end up changed too!

See you at the show!
