Welcome to the Historic Concrete Theatre
& Act One Ice Cream Parlor

Sorry, we’re closed for vacation
until February 6, 2026


We’ll be out of town in January. We feel fortunate to have the chance to travel internationally and gather fresh ideas and perspectives from beyond our small-town stage. We can’t wait to come back and share some of what we’ve learned and been inspired by with our friends and fans at the Concrete Theatre.

The Concrete Theatre was built in 1923 and is the oldest theatre in Skagit County. Valerie Stafford and Fred West have owned the venue since 2009. We’re proud to offer a variety of movies and live entertainment on our stage and screen. In 2021, we created Act One Ice Cream Parlor, which is now our lobby, box office, and the home of some amazing ice cream from Wisconsin, fresh-baked waffle cones, sundaes, Italian sodas, and a variety of espresso beverages. More recently we launched Act One Art Gallery. To receive the latest news about our movies, events, ice cream, and art gallery, please subscribe to our updates
