Drawing of renovated Hanna Theater

Check back here soon to see how you can play a part in the Re-Imagine a Classic Campaign.

 

Great Lakes Theater Festival, in partnership with Playhouse Square Foundation, will Re-Imagine a Classic when it transforms the historic Hanna Theatre at Playhouse Square into an innovative, new theater space and intimate permanent home for GLTF. The new theater space will feature a state-of the-art, flexible, thrust stage and will create a revolutionary new theater experience for Festival patrons. The Re-imagine a Classic Campaign, a culmination of Great Lakes Theater Festival’s twenty-five year commitment to downtown Cleveland and its Theater District, is the first capital campaign in the Festival’s 45-year history. 

When complete, the Re-imagine a Classic Campaign will:

  • Create an innovative new theater experience for the region and a permanent home for GLTF.
  • Establish an endowment for GLTF to ensure that the classics continue to thrive in Cleveland.
  • Provide support for Festival programming that reaches over 75,000 adults and students annually.
