The Keegan Theatre modernization




The New Keegan Theatre is on the way!  Thanks to generous donations, we are halfway to our $4 million dollar goal to fully modernize the Church Street Theater.
Together, we need to raise the rest.
The new Keegan Theatre will give us the facility we need to best serve our audiences, our neighborhood, and the artists who create our shows. The renovations will:
  • Open up the lobby with outdoor glass vestibule and three-story contemporary design, while retaining the unique and historic external beauty of the existing building
  • Add modern new restrooms – on main lobby and upper mezzanine levels!
  • Make the theater ADA-accessible
  • Install more comfortable seats in a pleasing configuration with added legroom
  • Upgrade lighting, sound, rigging and temperature-control systems
  • Expand the space behind the stage to better accommodate production development and staging
  • Fully excavate an additional basement level
  • Provide classroom and rehearsal space
The New Keegan Theatre will give us the facility we need to best serve our audiences, our neighborhood, and the artists who create our shows. But a big challenge remains.
