The Theatre Factory Tour

Step behind the curtain and into one of the most extraordinary creative spaces in American theatre. The Thomas H. Kean Theatre Factory is where imagination becomes reality — home to the scenery, props, costumes, and artisan shops that bring productions to life on stage at The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey.

Located in Florham Park, NJ, this sprawling 50,000-square-foot facility is far more than a workshop. Part interactive museum, part artistic playground, and part working production hub, the Theatre Factory offers visitors a rare insider’s look at the full theatrical process — from the first spark of an idea to opening night.

Wander through towering scenery studios, discover handcrafted props and costumes, and witness the artistry and craftsmanship behind professional theatre production. Every corner of the building tells a story, making the tour an unforgettable experience for theatre lovers, students, artists, and curious minds alike.

Tours are led by knowledgeable members of STNJ’s staff. Suitable for both adults and young people.
