Palace Theater Offers History Class Beginning March 12
Join Palace Theater historian Louis Belloisy for a fascinating five-week class March 12 - April 9 10:15 - 11:45 am, exploring the theater's beginnings and learn about its history, architecture, lore and roster of entertainers that have graced its stage that reads like a "Who's Who" from the world of entertainment.
Instead of going the way of the wrecking ball as so many historic theaters have, the Palace Theater originally named Poli's Palace after the great impresario Sylvester Z. Poli, was rescued from that fate and reopend to great fanfare in 2004. The Tuesday morning class includes visuals and handouts and guest presenters, along with the opportunity to watch the behind the scenes load-in process of the national tour of "The Book of Mormon" during the final class on April 9.
The class will meet weekly at the theater 100 East Main Street, Waterbury, CT.
Cost is $35. Pre-registration is required and may be done in person or by calling the Box office at 203.346.2000.
