Toyota Presents the Oakdale Theatre

Wallingford, CT

Built on an alfalfa field in 1954 by original founder Ben Segal, the original Oakdale was part of the "theatre-in-the-round" craze that saw many circular stages open in various parts of the Northeast. A family owned business for decades, it began primarily as a summer stock venue, hosting many of the musicals of the day – “Kiss Me Kate”, “South Pacific”, “Oklahoma” to mention a few – with many of Broadway’s brightest stars like John Raitt, Danny Kaye, James Garner and Ethel Merman.
