We are thrilled to invite you to a once-in-a-century celebration!
Our home, the Hedback Community Theater is turning 100, and we’re marking this incredible milestone with a day full of history, community, and celebration. Since 1925, this beloved venue has been home to countless performances and memories, and we want you to be part of its next chapter.
Join us on Saturday, August 2, 2025, for a two-part event:
Open House, 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.
This free event gives you the opportunity explore the historic Hedback Theater, enjoy behind-the-scenes tours, and learn about the legacy of the many theater companies who’ve called it home.
Centennial Gala, Doors open at 7:00 p.m.
Get your tickets and step back in time for a 1920s-themed evening featuring live entertainment, a speakeasy experience, light hors d’oeuvres, a cash bar, and a silent auction fundraiser, all in support of preserving this historic gem for future generations.
Those lucky enough to purchase one of the limited 50 VIP tickets will receive access to the Jazz Speakeasy, a bourbon tasting, and premium drinks. They will also have access to two sets of 1920’s jazz favorites performed by some of Footlite’s most gifted musicians.
Dress code: cocktail attire or 1920s-inspired evening wear.
Whether you’re a longtime supporter or new to the Footlite family, we’d be honored to celebrate with you.
Cheers to 100 years — and the next 100 to come.
