| Why is this theatre so important?
|
| |
If you listen hard
enough, you will hear the whispers of the past echoing off the
walls of this old building. You will hear the voices of
countless actors, directors and musicians who have been part of
this drama for over 70 years. The Ivoryton Playhouse, one of the
nation’s oldest continually running summer stock theatres, has been home to many of the great names of the American
stage that include among others Groucho Marx, Katharine Hepburn,
Marlon Brando and Tallulah Bankhead. Their voices remind us of
the venerable history of this building and its legacy in our
community.
This is a time of
great change for the Playhouse, not only in the renovated
physical structure but also in its place in our community. What
was once a thriving summer stock theatre is now a year round
professional theatre and cultural arts center, offering quality
performances and events for the community throughout the year.
This year the theatre hosted dances and children’s shows,
community musicals and concerts, as well as our wildly
successful professional theatre season.
Walk through the
theatre. Sit in the balcony. Talk to a child, a parent, an
actor. Listen. You’ll hear the answer.

| Why should you support the Ivoryton
Playhouse?
|
| |
As a patron of the
arts, we know how much you treasure this theatre. You know the
historic value of the building, listed on the National Register,
and you know the cultural value to the community of residents
and summer visitors. You appreciate the changes that have made
the building safer and more comfortable.
But did you know
that it is only through the support of our sponsors and our
members that we are able to exist today? Ticket sales and grants do not come close to covering the
costs of maintaining this building. We are in existence today only because people like you
believed in the Playhouse and supported us.
You are the key to
the preservation and success of this unique and wonderful place.
