Today marks a monumental day for Hudson Valley Shakespeare and our new home, the Samuel H. Scripps Theater Center, opening in 2026. The HVS staff, board members joined members of the construction, architectural and project management team to celebrate the last beam being placed in the exterior structure. Led by Consigli Construction Co., Inc., this "topping off" ceremony is a tradition within the construction industry, signifying the completion of the building's structural phase and acknowledging the construction team's efforts as we look forward to the building's completion. Designed by architecture and urban design practice Studio Gang, the structure will be the first public purpose-built LEED Platinum theater in the United States.
