The Avalon Theatre
ONE NIGHT ONLY - Support Local Theatre!
Join us on Friday, September 5, from 7:00 to 11:00 PM at the historic Avalon Theatre for an unforgettable evening in support of our upcoming 2026 season.
Step through the theatre doors and into a world of vintage glamour, live music, and circus magic. The night will feature performances by the sensational cast of Stage Fright, the soulful voice of Danah Denice, the foot-stomping energy of The Old Dogs, and late-night beats from DJ Kentavius Jones. Guests can enjoy interactive circus games, immersive pop-up performances, mystical fortune telling, light fare, and a cash bar. Plus, don’t miss major announcements about the future of The Factory Arts Project!
Costumes are encouraged as we invite you to travel back to the 1920s and experience a one-of-a-kind celebration under the big top. Whether you’re here to dance, donate, or simply delight in the spectacle, your presence helps keep independent, community-centered theatre alive on the Shore. A curated silent auction will be held throughout the evening, with all proceeds going directly toward supporting our 2026 season — funding artists, performances, and production needs.
Step right up and support the next chapter of local theatre! We can’t wait to see you there.
