Curtain Call for Construction as F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre Reopens in Style

October 30, 2025

Members of the Mayor and Council unveil a plaque to mark completion of renovations at the F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre during a dedication ceremony in September.

Six people stand and smile around a commemorative plaque at an indoor event, with some clapping and a poster in the background.
Pictured (l-r), Mayor Monique Ashton, councilmembers Adam Van Grack and Barry Jackson, Recreation and Parks Department Director Tara Stewart, Councilmember Marissa Valeri, and Community Facilities Superintendent Paige Janzen.

The primary focus of the renovations was to improve safety and compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act standards. Changes were made to the lobby, theater house and dressing rooms. The box office and restrooms were expanded and made wheelchair accessible. New speakers were installed in the theater, upgrading the sound experience and making assisted-listening devices more effective. The ADA-seating section was expanded and modified for easier and safer access.
