Historic Lancaster Site Gets A Retro Relift

For over 50 years, Liberty Place was the headquarters of Armstrong World Industries. The building is situated behind Clipper Stadium, with easy access from either Prince Street or Harrisburg Pike. Ample parking is on-site and free. Today, dozens of businesses and organizations have offices at Liberty Place. The building boasts what is now a vintage-style theater, used in the Armstrong days as a place to rehearse large theatrical product presentations sent on tour around the globe.

Manheim-based LCBC Church took on the substantial task of remodeling the theater for their weekly gatherings, renovating the venue with state-of-the-art audio, lighting and projection equipment. PRiMA Theatre is the first performing organization to be hosted at the now well-resourced venue.

RETRO REMIX is turning the dial on today's top radio standards with retro-pop versions of your favorite songs in this original theatrical concert experience. The show was inspired by the Youtube and internationally touring sensation, Postmodern Jukebox.
