After eighty-six years, the Grand Theater - home of The Road Company since 1976 - literally fell silent on May 14, 2010 when its roof collapsed, destroying the entire venue. This was a devastating tragedy for theater-goers throughout the Delaware Valley and, in particular, hit Southern New Jersey with significant impact - the 'home' that many actors, actresses, volunteers, and audiences once held close to their hearts, was gone. After evaluating the damage, it was discovered that approximately $250,000 would be needed, beyond the amount covered by insurance, to rebuild the Grand Theater, founded in 1924. Despite this daunting figure the ever-resilient Road Company family was determined to rebuild the theater and in doing so established the 'Make It Grand Again Campaign' fund.
