Last Updated 12/16/2021in News


The Columbia Theatre for the Performing Arts, located at 220 E. Thomas Street in Hammond, LA, is owned and operated by Southeastern Louisiana University. Many know it as a building in Downtown Hammond with an extensive historic past and tons of antiquated charm, but only attendees of its immersive, edge-of-your-seat performances know its true identity as the DreamFactory. You’ll escape the all-consuming realities of smartphones, social media, and streaming services to connect with talented local national, and international performers on a personal level.

The Columbia is proud to announce its upcoming season. Dates and show details can be found here.
