Following official guidelines from the State, we have begun a phased reopening of the theater. Details on our phased reopening plan and protocols can be found here.
We are doing everything we can for the safety of our patrons, staff, and volunteers. Our phased approach started with a new outdoor concert series out on Chestnut Street and now that our brand new HVAC system has been installed, we are open inside the Historic Theater to limited audiences!Read More
