CUMBERLAND - After closing its doors one year ago due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Embassy Theatre, like many arts organizations in the state of Maryland, has faced numerous challenges.
Fortunately, with the support of the Maryland State Arts Council and the Allegany Arts Council, the Embassy has prevailed and the theatre is ready to open the doors once more to audiences on March 19, with the remounted production of “See How They Run” by Phillip King, directed by Mark Ashby.
The Embassy Theatre recently received emergency grants from the Maryland State Arts Council ($10,378) and the Allegany Arts Council ($3500) along with grants from Main Street Maryland ($2861), the Community Trust Foundation ($3128), and the Hotel/Motel Tax Fund ($3500). These grants totaling close to $20,000 have helped keep the lights and heat on at the Embassy throughout the second wave of the pandemic in Allegany
