Shepherdstown is West Virginia’s oldest town and one of its most cultured, home to Shepherd University, the Contemporary American Theater Festival, and the riverside Bavarian Inn, with a historic downtown that draws weddings and arts events year-round. Prime AV brings a full production team and our own inventory to Shepherdstown, so a riverside wedding, a theater program, or a university event all get the same broadcast-grade sound, lighting, staging, and video.
Why Shepherdstown planners bring us in
Shepherdstown events lean on historic and arts venues where production quality matters and built-in AV is thin, from theater festivals to riverside weddings. Planners bring us in because we bring metro-grade audio, lighting, and video out to the Panhandle and run the show discreetly so the town’s character stays front and center.

What producing an event in Shepherdstown actually involves
Arts and theater events demand real quality. Performances and festival programs expect clean, well-designed sound and lighting, so we bring the audio detail, lighting control, and staging a demanding room needs.
Historic venues have no rigging points. Shepherdstown’s old buildings carry nothing overhead, so we stand the rig on its own towers and bases, size it to the room, and protect historic floors and finishes.
Riverside and outdoor events are open-air productions. Weddings on the Potomac and on lawns need open-air audio, weatherproofing, and a rain plan set before the day.
Metro-grade production travels to town. Shepherdstown is out in the Panhandle, so we plan the load and crew to bring a full city-standard rig without cutting corners, and run it discreetly to fit the setting.
