The Oakland Center for the Arts (or the Oakland, as it is usually called) is an interdisciplinary arts center based in Youngstown, Ohio. The center was established in 1986, as a community venue for theater, film, music, literature, dance, and the visual arts.[1] The center specializes in performing locally written plays, as well as offbeat, obscure musicals such as Bat Boy: The Musical and Baby
In the 1990s, the center joined the Ballet Western Reserve in the renovation of the community's former Elks Building.[2]
In 2008, the Oakland broke new ground in the world of Youngstown community theater when the center's production of The Full Monty ended with full-frontal nudity by the six male leads.
