A theater has always been in the heart of Valleta Lanier, founder of Lamplight Theater.
With a belief that God wants to use all of the arts to bring Him glory, in January of 2005, in a most unusual way, she was inspired to build Lamplight Theater. While watching the movie, Phantom of the Opera, the beauty of an early 1900’s theater inspired her heart.
This old organ, curtained in a small corner of Lamplight Theater, is a tribute to "Phantom of the Opera" for the inspiration!
Valleta set out on a quest to find a building in Broken Bow, Oklahoma to house the theater. Through the creative idea of her husband, Gary, she realized she lived in the very building that would become the theater. Built in 1946, part of the old rock Bank and Post Office building became home for Lamplight Theater.
Enjoy from the Audience... Plans are underway to bring a variety of artistic venues that will appeal to all ages, with family entertainment in mind. Currently Lamplight is being scheduled for Worship Events, Worship Services, Conferences, and recording sessions in conjunction with Broadway Recording Studio. Take each opportunity to enjoy this small theater, in an atmosphere of the early 1900’s. Invite someone to enjoy it with you!
Support as a Theater Patron... You can support the ongoing efforts of Lamplight Theater as a theater patron with a one time donation or regular donations. Patrons can also give items or work time, as the theater expands. Plans are currently underway to develop the Lamplight Garden, adjacent to the theater.
