Into a New Home

Published: March 6, 2007

old Signature
After a 14-year stint at what was affectionately known to many as “The Garage,” Signature Theatre has settled into its new location at 4200 Campbell Avenue (formerly S. Stafford Street) in the Village at Shirlington.
This is the third location for Signature since its founding in 1988 by Donna Migliaccio and Eric Schaeffer. Featuring two black box theaters, greatly expanded facilities and ample parking, this new space is a far cry from the theater’s humbler beginnings.

The Signature’s first two years saw it hosted by the Gunston Arts Center on Wilson Boulevard, prior to its move to what had previously been the business location of Auto Bumper Plating at 3806 S. Four Mile Run. A long standing (1964-1992) auto repair and plating business run by the Lentini family, the garage was renovated at a cost of $300,000 to a 104-seat black box theater which quickly drew acclaim for their many productions over the years.

The current season at the Village opened on January 12, 2007, featuring Stephen Sondheim’s Into The Woods as its premiere performance.
