ABOUT THE FULTON
The Fulton Opera House Foundation is a not-for-profit public charity that exists to engage the public with exceptional theatre experiences that honor, preserve, and extend the Fulton's role as a National Historic Landmark. This mission is accomplished through the following programs:
- Fulton Theatre: A regional professional theatre company nurturing the mind and soul of the community through a season of plays designed uniquely for today's Lancaster audience and impacting the national theatre community by commissioning and producing world premieres and re-imagined works of note.
- The Academy of Theatre: A year-long program of classes for adults and youth exploring the tools of theatre making and the wonders of creative expression.
- Youtheatre: The nationally recognized program which gives voice to the under-served in our community, building plays from their own histories and changing lives in the process.
- Fulton Family Theatre: A series of programs including plays for families at the Fulton and numerous workshops and residencies in the schools.
