This is a remarkable 'little theatre', serving a community that shares more than a few challenges with Easington. The theatre exists to serve the community and schools. It currently seats about 100 patrons.
The Red House Arts Center (Redhouse) believes art has the power to build community and change lives. Everyday, we work across our community of Syracuse, NY, especially with underserved populations, creating opportunities such as acting roles, free tickets, and volunteer experiences. We bring the arts to students in struggling Syracuse City elementary schools reaching 2,200 kids each day. We are constantly growing and expanding in order to have the greatest possible impact on our community.

Billy Elliot finally comes to my town!

The Red House currently has a seating capacity of 89. I didn't leave out a zero, it seats just 89. But this non-profit organization has bought the former Sibley's Department Store in the heart of downtown Syracuse in order to expand their program and increase their seating capacity. I assume the renovations on this 3 story building will be done by May of 2017. The new location will be just a block away from the Landmark Theater, a 2000+ seat 1920s beauty. Perhaps Billy Elliot will play at the ornate Landmark? I'm seeing Matilda's National Tour at the Landmark next Friday & I'll report back if anybody knows anything.

I've only seen one of Red House's productions, "13, the Musical". It was done in early 2015 and the theater did a tremendous job with it. They used a combination of local talent along with a handful of kids with NYC resumes. Their live band were all local teens. BETM will be in good hands with this organization.

This one appears to have been cancelled or postponed. Their website now shows The Complete Works of William Shakespeare during those same dates, May 4-20, 2017.
