About Us

Proctors Collaborative unites Proctors (Schenectady), Capital Repertory Theatre (Albany), Universal Preservation Hall (Saratoga Springs) s well as subsidiaries such as the Collaborative School of the Arts, Marquee Power, Open Stage Media and the Schenectady-Saratoga Symphony Orchestra, and a suite of creative initiatives to enrich the Capital Region through arts-driven education, civic connection, and meaningful community impact. The concept of Proctors Collaborative was developed in concert with key staff members and the Proctors board of directors, in acknowledgement of the venues’ collective status as the premier economic development, education, and entertainment anchor of the region.
