Strand Theatre, Historic theatre in downtown Marietta, United States
Strand Theatre is a theatre building in downtown Marietta featuring distinctive art deco architecture with curved walls and ornate details throughout. The venue contains 531 seats arranged to accommodate a range of live performances and events in its symmetrically designed interior.
The building was constructed in 1935 by the Manning-Winks Theatre Company as a major entertainment venue for the city. After closing for several decades, community preservation efforts led to its reopening in 2008, restoring it to active use.
The theatre hosts live performances, classic films, concerts, and comedy shows that form part of the local cultural calendar. Visitors come to experience diverse entertainment that brings the community together throughout the year.
The theatre is located at 117 North Park Square in the downtown area and is easily accessible on foot. You can purchase tickets individually or arrange group bookings and private rentals for events if needed.
On October 17, 2017, Earl Smith gave $500,000 to the capital campaign in memory of his late wife Rachel, and the theatre took the name Earl and Rachel Smith Strand Theatre. The building had reopened in 2008 through the work of Friends of The Strand, Inc.
