(La Porte, IN) - The La Porte Little Theatre is celebrating its 100th birthday with an upcoming open house.
The theatre club started in 1925 then moved in 1954 to a former church building at Third and A streets where it’s been ever since.
The theatre survives from the continued support of volunteers and patrons of the musicals, dramas and comedies performed on the stage by members of the community.
The open house is scheduled Sunday beginning at 1 p.m.
La Porte Superior Court 4 Judge Greta Friedman, who’s a member of the theatre club, said it was started with help from a professional actor, Graham Young, who came here from London and received community support for his desire to start a local theatre club.
“Although he was no longer acting professionally, his love of theatre continued,” she said.
There are five plays on the 2025 season schedule, beginning with “The Music Man,” which has six performances lined up from February 28 through March 9.
