A Brief History of the Sherman Theater in PA

The Sherman Theater in PA opened in 1929 as a venue for touring vaudeville acts. When vaudeville became a part of history, the Sherman Theater transitioned into a movie house, often showing cartoons for audiences full of kids. But in the 1980s, times were hard for independently owned movie theaters across the county, and the Sherman closed its doors for a short time. It reopened in 1988 as a theater for the performing arts, but with few repairs made, it still struggled.
But in 2004, after months of renovation, the Sherman Theater reopened. Its stage is once again home to various bands, comedians, and community events. The original architecture has been restored, and serves as the perfect backdrop for all the Sherman Theater’s events.
