Youngstown State Theater’s fate at town meeting

posted by BALLETTEACHER on January 11, 2007 at 4:35 am

YOUNGSTOWN, OH — After many attempts for preservation and renovation, it looks like the oldest standing theater in Youngstown, Ohio will possibly be purchased and renovated for future use. Jaime Hughes and partners of Youngstown are holding a meeting January 12, 2007 at 7:00 PM at the Cedar’s Lounge in downtown Youngstown to discuss the future progress and work at the State.

Anyone interested in the State’s situation should attend this meeting to be informed of information and offer suggestions. The directors of the project hope to open the theater as a non-profit organization to hold events for local performing art productions. Anyone wanting more information should visit the Downtown Youngstown website or the State Supporters' Myspace page.
