The Lincoln Theatre, also known as Little Theatre on Lincoln Street, is a historic performance space at 1 Lincoln Street in New Haven, Connecticut. Built in 1924, it is the only known survivor in the state of the Little Theatre Movement of 1911-1933.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

It was reopened in 2014 as ACES Little Theatre.
