The Pullo Center

The Pullo Center at Penn State York features a 1,016-seat theatre with full production capabilities. The Pullo Center offers a diverse array of touring shows, concerts, and cultural, community, and educational events.

Construction on the 71,000 square foot facility began in December 2004 and the highly anticipated completion of the building was marked by the grand opening on August 25, 2005. The $11.9 million facility was constructed with a combination of state funding from the Department of General Services in Harrisburg, University funds, and with the generous contributions of local donors. The building overlooks the City of York and offers amazing vistas from the theatre lobbies.

Design professionals worked hard to ensure that the theatre offers the intimacy of a much smaller theatre by incorporating a full mezzanine and several different seating areas including upper and lower level parterres. The fully equipped theatre has state-of-the-art lighting and sound systems, and one of the largest stage houses in the area. The full fly tower above the stage allows touring and traveling shows of all types to be able to perform in the space, while back stage amenities treat performers to a comfortable and welcoming environment.
