ON WITH THE SHOW!

The City of Sandusky has changed dramatically over the past 80 years from a small town atmosphere to a year-round resort town.

In keeping with that change, The Sandusky State Theatre is ready to showcase our fine city with performances and programs that will delight audiences of all ages and generate income for the entire community.

TAKE PART IN THE MAGIC BY BECOMING A PATRON OF THE SANDUSKY STATE THEATRE.

This year, The Sandusky State Theatre is proud to be celebrating 80 years of providing quality entertainment for Erie County and its surrounding cities. In celebration of this milestone and to prepare for a successful future, we are asking at this time for your support.

With the cost of maintaining the beautiful, historic Sandusky State Theatre builidng and the rising costs of utilities and supplies, ticket sales alone do not cover the $255,000 needed annually to successfully operate the theatre.

With your support The Sandusky State Theatre will be able to continue to grow and provide a wide-variety of exciting, high-quality entertainment year round.

The broad range of programs that we offer continues to meet the diverse interests of our community. Some of the highlights of the 2008 - 2009 season include "Footloose", The Moscow Ballet performing "The Great Russian Nutcracker", the national premiere of "HATS! the Musical", Irving Berlin's "I Love a Piano", "The Nobodies of Comedy". Dinner Theatre is coming to the theatre in the spring with "Finnegan's Farewell" and "Mario and Mary's Wedding". Click on Season Shows to see all that The Sandusky State Theatre has to offer this season.

We hope you are inspired to become a member and to make an investment in your community that we can all feel proud of and take part in.
