Barn Raising, Help us raise the ceiling!
This special event will help us pay for fixing the ceiling in the auditorium. Scheduled for December 5, 2025. Have you ever had the feeling that the sky is falling? At the Strand Theatre, it almost is! We invite you to join us in the spirit of an old-fashioned community barn raising. This time, we’re not building a barn, but we are fixing the ceiling! Generous support has allowed us to remediate mold, upgrade the seats, install new curtains, and build a concessions stand. During Winter 2026, we’re raising funds to repair the ceiling and take on additional improvements that will enhance safety, comfort, and the overall experience for our patrons. Come out for a toe-tapping celebration featuring some of your GCP favorites.

Summer Youth Workshop: Something Rotten! JR.
August 7, 8, 9 & 14, 15, 16, 2026.
Something Rotten Jr is a comedic, fast-paced musical comedy set in the English Renaissance. The play starts in 1595 when brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are struggling playwrights trying to outshine the legendary “Bard”, William Shakespeare. When a local soothsayer (Nancy, the niece of the famous Nostradamus) predicts that the future of theater will be singing, dancing, and acting at the same time, the brothers set out to write the world’s first musical. Their ambitious project leads to a whirlwind of mistaken predictions, comedic mishaps, and big production numbers. By opening night they learn that true success means staying true to oneself.
Directed by Tom & Kate Glover with Killian Glover. Presented by arrangement with Music Theater International.
