Mountain Playhouse, Professional summer stock theatre in Jennerstown, United States
Mountain Playhouse operates from a converted 1805 gristmill building located in Pennsylvania's Laurel Highlands region. The venue hosts theatrical performances throughout the summer months in this restored historic structure.
The theatre was founded in 1939, making it Pennsylvania's oldest professional summer stock operation. It began with the idea of bringing theatre to a historic building and has maintained this practice for generations.
The theatre produces plays with professional performers and collaborates with specialists from various theatrical organizations. Visitors experience not just acting but also the teamwork among established artists from different areas of stage work.
The theatre operates during the summer season with multiple performances staged in the restored mill building. Visitors should book tickets in advance as shows, especially on weekends, frequently sell out quickly.
Live musicians accompany the stage performances, bringing an extra layer to the theatrical experience. This touch transforms standard summer theatre into a more immersive production that audiences don't always expect.
