If you have never been there, you must go. Whether for a live event or a movie, this is the place. I'm old enough to remember when a crew of volunteers were all that kept it from a premature death. It was fun going there, but there were compromises. Not any more!
Now, with the latest renovations and additions (air conditioning; vastly improved sound; more, more, more bathroom space; beer, wine and liquor) it's a joy to go there.

It's a wonderful smaller theater. Intimate, great seats, acoustically a gem. Highly recommend.
We have a few different seat sizes throughout the theatre as well as some other more flexible seating options. Feel free to contact us prior to a show so we can help you select the seats that work best for you or talk to any of our staff or volunteers at a show and we will be happy to help find a solution that is most comfortable for you.

Really nice place, seating is comfortable, large stage, live music and plays, staff are friendly and helpful, ticket prices are reasonable but parking lot is small fills up fast have to park blocks away. Had a great experience.
