The Akron Civic Theatre kicks off the public phase of “Staging the Future” capital campaign with a free party celebrating the theater’s 90th anniversary on Saturday, April 13, 2019, beginning at 1:30 p.m.
The community is invited to the Civic for free entertainment, cake and other refreshments in the Grand Lobby before gathering in the auditorium to enjoy theater’s Mighty Wurlitzer and a screening of the classic movie musical, “Singin’ in the Rain.” The Civic’s exciting restoration and transformation plans will be unveiled. Wayside Furniture has generously agreed to match all donations made to the campaign during the event, up to $2,000.
The event is free, but tickets are required. Tickets are available through the Akron Civic Theatre Box Office at 182 S. Main St. in Akron; Wayside Furniture at 1367 Canton Rd. in Akron; and all Nervous Dog Coffee Bars in the greater Akron area.
