About US
Who We Are
Compass Theater began in 1997 as a non-profit organization. We have a joint partnership with the Petersburg School District and share the Wright Auditorium with them. Part of this partnership means we only hire teens who are students at the Middle or High Schools.
Twenty Year Anniversary
This is our ten year anniversary! 1997-2017. Stay tuned for information about a possible celebration.
Compass Theater Board
We are always looking for volunteers to be part of our adult board! Being a board member means free popcorn :)
Commonly Asked Questions
What are the rules regarding rated R movies?
Rated R movies require adult permission for children 16 and under, this means a parent or guardian must be present. Notes and phone calls will not be accepted.
Can I bring my own food into the theater?
No you cannot. The products we sell at concessions should be enough to satisfy your movie munchies and are much easier to clean up than what you bring. Water bottles are ok.
Should I leave my garbage in the theater?
No, you should not. Thank you for cleaning up after yourselves!
