The Park Theater Foundation has a variety of shows planned for the historic Park Theater in Glens Falls, NY, throughout September and October 2025.
They all take place in what was the first movie theater in Glens Falls, at 14 Park Street. The town gathered there to watch silent films and vaudeville shows until the theater’s closure in 1935.
It was thereafter a printing plant for the Glens Falls Post Co., who were publishers of The Post-Star.
Now the theater is home to the non-profit Foundation, dedicated to providing a venue for quality and affordable entertainment and educational opportunities in the performing arts.
