Hello friends of The Murphy Theatre,

WELCOME TO YOUR HISTORIC MURPHY THEATRE.

If you’re new to this landmark, we invite you to take a quick look around our website to learn a little bit about our history, and to discover the many exciting offerings and opportunities waiting for you at this intimate 682-seat venue. 

Find out more

You’ll soon understand why The Murphy Theatre has flourished through the years. Built by the eccentric local business visionary of his time, Charlie Murphy, as a lasting gift to his beloved community in 1918, The Murphy Theatre is still a source of pride for his hometown of Wilmington, and a dynamic destination for the entire state.

We also fancy ourselves as the kindest venue you’ll ever experience. From the moment you walk through our doors you’ll find that The Murphy Theatre is a place of family. Folks spend their weekends with us for more than what takes place on our stage. If you’re one of our loyal regulars, you already know this. We so appreciate the part you may have played in our past, and we now invite you to play an even larger role in our future. Please consider a 2024 Murphy Theatre Membership today!

Kind Regards, 

Steve Burnette,

Executive Director
