Out of an abundance of caution for our visitors, the Paramount Theatre will be temporarily closed to the public beginning March 18th. We are closely monitoring recommendations and reports on the coronavirus (COVID-19) from local, regional, and national health officials to preserve the safety and well-being of our patrons, volunteers, and staff.
CHICAGO, THE MUSICAL
Our 28th Annual Summer Musical, "Chicago" has been cancelled. After announcements from the city, state, and federal government the chances of our cast getting on stage together and rehearsing on May 1 seem impossible. We have already reached out to the distributor, and are hoping to get the rights to do the show NEXT June. We can't imagine a year without our annual musical, but we'll be back, and louder than ever! We are so very sorry, thanks for understanding.
