Using grants from the Greater Lansdowne Civic Association and a Community Development Building Grant from Delaware County the restoration of the theater marquee has begun.

Project architect Farewell Mills Gatsch took measurements, inspected structural elements, and began the process to develop plans/specifications that will enable the Historic Lansdowne Theater Corporation to bid the project this spring. Individual steel letters that spell LANSDOWNE, long stored in the theater attic, will be restored and relit with their original neon. The restored sign will include energy efficient lighting, but will appear as it has since it installation c. 1940.

Look for the marquee to be fully restored around Labor Day.

Kudos to all involved with making this happen. You can be part of helping restore the Lansdowne Theater. Visit the Historic Lansdowne Theater Corporation site for more information.

On Saturday, April 17, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. the doors will open for a concert from the ‘Straight No Chaser’ group.

Straight No Chaser is a ten-member a cappella group that got its start a dozen years ago at Indiana University. The all-male group reconvened in 2008 to release the album Holiday Spirits, which reached number 1 on iTunes, led to TV and radio appearances, and ultimately changed the young men’s lives. They’ve given up their day jobs, are working on a pop album, and are in the midst of an expansive cross-country tour, which now includes Lansdowne.

Tickets go on sale at Ticketmaster starting at 10:00 a.m. on March 4th and at Regency Café and Cinema 16:9 on March 5th.

The Lansdowne Theater is located at 31 North Lansdowne Avenue, one block north of Baltimore and Lansdowne Avenues in Lansdowne, PA. The theater is within easy walking distance of the Lansdowne Railroad Station (the R3 line) and is served by several bus lines. Parking is available across the street from the theater on Lansdowne Avenue and behind the theater on Highland Avenue.
