The Irvington Theater was built in 1902 in the Classic Revival Style. Designed by A. J. Manning and patterned after the Ford’s Theatre in Washington, DC, the Theater is a multipurpose concert hall/music theater located on the entire third floor of Town Hall in downtown Irvington, New York. The 432-seat theater features an orchestra, mezzanine, balcony and six charming gold leafed boxes, a proscenium stage and thrust complete with five backstage dressing rooms. The Theater is listed on the national Register of Historic Places.
 
With pleasing proportions and marvelous acoustics, the Theater has been touted as “one of the finest municipal halls in eastern New York State” by Alvah French History of Westchester County, “A jewel of a theater on the Hudson” by Robert Sherman New York Times and “Acoustically superb” by Lou Cevetillo Opera Critic Gannett Newspapers.

The IT Commission was established in 1980 by the Village of Irvington to operate and manage the theater. Commissioners are appointed by the Mayor and Trustees.  The annual calendar and capital improvements are the direct responsibility of the Commission.

From 1980 to the present the IT has been the venue for performances by numerous and diverse artists and performance groups.
