The Wilbury Group

The Wilbury Group is an ever-evolving collaboration of Rhode Island-tied artists committed to creating the highest quality professional theatre. The Wilburys believe that theatre should be an affordable and accessible means of enrichment to the community; We strive to create work that will simultaneously engage, inspire, and provoke-thought among our audiences. Recent productions include Edward Albee’s classic Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and Sam Shepard’s True West, both performed at Providence’s Perishable Theatre.
