If you prefer live theatre over movies, the AFD Theatre has you covered. Originally known as Arlington Friends of the Drama and founded in 1923, AFD produces four shows each year, including two musicals. In addition to winning awards each year from the Eastern Massachusetts Association of Community Theatres (EMACT) for acting, production, set design, and more, the AFD is proud of its reach to local and regional audiences and a continued tradition of community theatre excellence. In addition to the main season productions, AFD also hosts a short play festival and other events all year, so be sure to check the calendar and throw on your dress duds for a show.
