Live your best life. Experience electrifying performances at Prima.

We’re here to be espresso for the soul.

We produce fresh experiences to invigorate your life.

Our founders, Mitch and Diana Nugent, started Prima with a simple idea — to create fresh experiences that invigorate lives. The earliest shows were intimate cabarets at Prince Street Café, where audiences sat just steps away from the region's powerhouse performers. The energy was contagious. Word spread. 

And Prima quickly grew, staging performances in ballrooms, warehouses, and unexpected venues across the city, always pushing the boundaries of what live performance could be.

In 2018, Prima found its own home — a boutique performance space designed to match its commitment to intimate performance experiences.  The vision remains the same across the years: crafting thrilling experiences that bring people together — cultivating beauty and joy. With every seat intimately close to the nation's best powerhouse talent, free on-site parking, in-theater concessions, and comfortable seating, you're in for an energizing time at Prima.

Don’t settle for another forgettable day. Reserve your tickets today or call (717) 327-5124 to connect with the friendly Prima team.
