Lebanon Theatre to renovate, occupy former Kroger store

By Terry Morris | Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 10:07 AM

The Lebanon Theatre Company has announced plans to renovate and move into a former Kroger store at 10 S. Mechanic St. in the Warren County seat’s downtown.

Located for 10 years on on the fourth floor of The Shoe Factory Antique Mall, 120 E. South St., the theater group needed to find a new home when it was unable to negotiate a lease extension.

Advantages of the former grocery store, most recently a Goodwill outlet, include its street-level parking and adequate parking space.

Now basically an open space, the building will require considerable work to turn it into a theater that meets building codes. Fundraising has begun. The group has canceled its Feb. 5-14 production of “Crimes of the Heart” at the Shoe.

The group hopes to add children’s programming once the move and renovation are completed.

Items that have accumulated over the theater’s past 15 years will be sold Feb. 6 during a Benefit Moving Auction at the Shoe.

For more information about the move, or to donate to the theater’s future, go to www.LTCplays.com or call (513) 228-0932.
