Recognition in our program

The MARQUEE ROOM will only be open during performances held the opening weekend of each mainstage show.  It is open before performances and at intermission.  Occasionally the marquee room will be used for private receptions, but contributors will be admitted to those, too. The Marquee Room features complimentary beverages and hors d’ oeuvres, and it's the perfect place to mingle and relax at the theatre.
