Mouse River Players Community Theater launches a fund drive today for a lobby renovation project tentatively planned for completion by the fall of 2022.
“We’re doing this for our patrons. This is for them,” said MRP President Heather Speer.
Planned changes to the Arlene Theater at 115 1st Street SE in downtown Minot include expanding and renovating the current lobby and relocating bathrooms from the auditorium to the lobby area and giving them an updated look. This will create more space in both the lobby area and the women’s restroom and will help to reduce crowding and lines in a post-COVID world, according to MRP.
