Named after 20th century entertainment legends, Gene Kelly (1912-1996) and Billy Strayhorn (1915-1967) — both natives of Pittsburgh’s East Liberty neighborhood — the Kelly Strayhorn Theater (KST) is reflective of the passion that its founders had for the arts.
Today, the Kelly Strayhorn Theater carries on the legacy of its founders by fostering bold and innovative artistry with a global perspective. The theater celebrates diversity in voice, thought, and expression, and upholds a firm commitment to inclusion. Furthermore, KST provides a safe and welcome space for dialogue and artistic expression for all who enter.
Available for rent, the Kelly Strayhorn Theater is an intimate, 350-seat multiple-use performance venue. The theater and lobby are great for performances, screenings, meetings and other special events.
