The Oakland
The Oakland Center for the Arts (or the Oakland, as it is usually called) is an interdisciplinary arts center based in Youngstown, Ohio. The center was established in 1986 by Youngstown native Alexandra Vansuch and a group of local performers and civic-minded individuals, as a community venue for theater, film, music, literature, dance, and the visual arts.[1] The center specializes in performing locally written plays, as well as offbeat, obscure plays and musicals such as Bat Boy: The Musical, Baby, Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris, and Assassins. Their award-winning work has gained them local and regional acclaim. Reopened in 2016 for a new start with Kids First Theatre Initiative, a premier children's theatre company in Youngstown, and have 6-7 productions per year since reopening.
