Construction of Skin and Bones Theater is nearly complete.
We're in the final permitting stages, which sometimes feels interminable. But soon enough, we'll be ready to welcome you to our new cinema and flexible performance space at 118 W Parrish Street in Durham!
Driven by adventure, guided by the unusual, and built by and for the Durham community. Skin and Bones is a local cinema and performance space from the founders of Shadowbox Studio, programmed alongside the curators and creatives who characterize Bull City.
Our events range from film screenings and live performances to lectures and book clubs — all with the same intent: to connect and reflect our community.
Organizations like Skin and Bones Theater and Film Durham are working to build a local cinema scene that both reflects and benefits the community around it.
Durham’s newest arthouse theater owes its name to a skeleton.
Alex Maness and Jim Haverkamp have been building toward this moment since they struck up a conversation while waiting in line at Raleigh's Rialto Theatre in 1997.
