It is an exciting time for supporters of the Athens Theatre. The long lasting renovation and restoration will be coming to a close this Fall and a dedication ceremony is being planned for September 19, 2008. The facility will concentrate on classic and independent movie screenings for the first several months while equipment is being installed and the building is readied for live theatrical performances. A Grand Reopening on January 6, 2009 (the anniversary of the original opening) will kick off live performances. The facility will operate year around thereafter with a diverse programming schedule of movies, comedy and musical concerts, as well as smaller touring shows.
The renovation costs will be approximately $9.6 million. Anyone interested in learning more or taking a tour can contact me directly at I am the Executive Director and give tours on a weekly basis to interested individuals and companies.
