June 18..... MOLLY HATCHET New Concert Date

Counter
 
Welcome to the WATSEKA THEATRE website. 

We are proud to introduce to you the new look of our fabulous 1931 Art Deco Watseka Theatre venue.  We look forward to bringing to the community the opportunity of experiencing a variety of entertainment arts; from concerts, live music & professional dance troupes to dinner theatre, local talent shows, private events such as weddings, and special holiday productions. This beautifully classic 1931 Art Deco building was designed by the famous Louis Skidmore of "Skidmore, Owens and Merrill."  The Watseka Theatre is believed to be the only theatre he ever designed. He went on to become the "Chief Architect" of the 1933 Century of Progress Chicago Worlds Fair.  You may be familiar with some of his and his firms most renown buildings, such as the New York United Nations Building, Chicago Sears Tower and the John Hancock Center.  The Watseka Theatre is definitely a "Diamond in Our Own Backyard."

We will offer the Watseka Theatre and its accompanying facilities to the community to rent for private parties, weddings, corporate meetings, family reunions or.... just use your imagination. 

Please sign our guestbook, we appreciate hearing from you.
