We’ll be announcing our plans to bring entertainment to you, our loyal audience, until it’s safe to come back to the Opera House!

The Lancaster Fire Department served its community by volunteering to clean and reorganize the Lancaster Opera House rehearsal and set storage space. They displayed their skill and efficiency as they drilled on fire and rescue equipment.

The Lancaster Opera House would like to thank the volunteers from the Lancaster Fire Department who helped us clean out and reorganize our rehearsal and set storage space. They donated their time and energy as we reorganized the facility to make the space safer and more functional. We are so grateful for the support of this awesome community, and we look forward to the time when it is safe to reopen the theater and provide work for our artists and entertainment for our patrons.

If we all work together we will beat this!!!!!

The next show from our video archive is South Pacific, a story about nurses and soldiers--everyday heroes in a fight against an unseen enemy--and we present this today in honor of the stunning bravery of ordinary people on the front lines of history.
