The Summit Playhouse, founded in 1918, is NJ’s oldest continuously running community theatre. Our season consists of three main stage plays, several youth productions, theatrical workshops and community collaborations. Each production benefits a local outreach, and each year a theater arts award is presented to two high school seniors. Our home, built in 1891, is listed on the National Registry of Historic Buildings.

The Summit Playhouse Bake-Off was held on August 2, 2020. Created by playwright Paula Vogel, a bake-off is a writing exercise within a 48-hour period where a list of ingredients inspires people to create a piece of theatre. Taking inspiration from August Wilson's Fences, the ingredients were a trumpet, unexpected money, a porch, a dance break, a secret, and extra credit: the Devil.
We received 45 scripts all the way from California to the UK.
