Last month, the Paris Community Theatre experienced an electrical issue that prompted the temporary closing of the theatre. The board of Paris Community Theatre is happy to report that the the electrical problems were found and fixed.

The building passed all inspections and is again open for business.
“The Board of Directors has directed that a thorough assessment of our electrical needs be conducted. We are in the process of doing that now,” Board President Kathy Brown said. “As we noted before, the safety of our employees, casts, crews and patrons is our priority.”
Donations from community members have helped defray the costs of the recent repairs and will also assist toward future efforts to update the electrical system. Anyone interested in making a donation can mail it to PCT at PO Box 913, 75461. Please mark all checks “PCT electrical.”
The Paris Community Theatre will be opening their 2013-2014 season on schedule with the beloved Broadway musical, Godspell.
Performances are August 8-11 and 15-18. Tickets can be purchased online at pctonstage.com or by calling the box office at 903.784.0259.
