Cast Theatrical Company in Rosenberg, TX will continue its season after a fire broke out on August 11 in Downtown Rosenberg’s historic Vogelsang Building, causing extensive damage to the company’s longtime home. The theatre has occupied the space for the past 35 years.
“We are incredibly thankful for the fast and courageous response of the firefighters and first responders,” said John Bevil, President of Cast Theatrical’s Board of Directors. “While our hearts are heavy over the loss of our beloved theatre, we are committed to continuing our mission and bringing live theatre to our community.”
Cast Theatrical will stage the remainder of its summer melodrama, She Was Marginally Modest, at a temporary location: 1117 1st St., inside the fellowship hall of a former church, located just around the corner from Downtown Rosenberg. Free parking is available behind the building.
