One of the few remaining film and performing arts houses in Wisconsin
MINERAL POINT OPERA HOUSE
139 High Street Mineral Point WI 53565 Information: 608.987.2516

Since 1915 the Mineral Point Opera House has offered the community an outstanding
venue for a diverse program of musical, dance and theatrical presentations.
We are proud to be the home of the Shake Rag Players and the Mineral Point Film Society.

The initial phase of the restoration
of the Mineral Point Opera House is nearing completion.
We are due to reopen in the Spring of 2010.

Thanks to grants and our generous donors, the theater now boasts updated heating and air conditioning, a long-overdue sprinkler system, historically accurate seating, and glorious plasterwork and painting by the
original group from the theater's inception.

Spend a few minutes viewing the photo journal
of the amazing transformation.

This part of the project is only the beginning. We still have a long way to go. Phase Two includes refurbishing the dressing rooms and replacing the sound, lighting and rigging systems. Phase Three will make the outside look as grand as the inside.

We have funding to finish Phase One but we are falling short
of our Phase Two and Three goals.
We need more help to keep this beauty alive!

Sincere thanks to Jim Stroschein for his inspiring video:

continued support and encouragement.
Wait until you see us in 2010!
