The lobby, box office, rest rooms and orchestra level of the theater are accessible by elevator, which is located through the City Office entrance on the on the east side of the building. We have two dedicated wheelchair seats in the orchestra section, each with companion seats. In addition to the wheelchair seats we also have 8 seats at the end of selected rows with arm rests that fold up for those with limited mobility.

Performing Arts

For young children, please be aware that many events at LOH are loud (85dBA+); feel free to bring protective headphones for your child or use your hands to cover their ears. Certain shows may have age restrictions but that will be evident on the event sales page online. This private, single-stall restroom is available for use by anyone. Find it on Level 1 where the City of Lebanon meeting rooms are located. The opera house is the same, in most respects, as it was when it opened in 1924, but the renovation will make it seem “new and fresh” to patrons, Clifford said. The upgrades include new seats and lighting, marking the opera house's 100th anniversary.

The Vermont Mandolin Trio performs Saturday night at 7 at Seven Stars Arts Center in Sharon. Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the door; children under 12 get in free. A pair of the most venerable and active Upper Valley performance venues, Lebanon Opera House and Randolph’s Chandler Music Hall, are reopening in the next week after renovations. The Lebanon Opera House will start hosting events right away, with plans to show a classic Charlie Chaplin film Thursday night before some live comedy and music this weekend.

Restrooms

I ordered tickets online but I did not see an option to have my tickets mailed to me. When you successfully complete an online ticket purchase a confirmation number is displayed in the order window. If you don’t see this when ordering then your purchase has not been completed. LOH does not allow flash photography as it can be distracting to other patrons. The individual artists often have their own policies, but many allow non-flash photography with personal use cameras and prohibit video recording. More restrictive photo policies will be posted and announced at the show.

Music

Local non-profit organizations often sell light snacks/desserts and non-alcoholic beverages in the lobby before a show and during intermission. Food or drink (except water) are not allowed in the theater so all refreshments must be consumed in the lobby. Because LOH is located in a municipal building, no alcohol is allowed on the premises. If you bring your ID to box office, we can almost always re-print your tickets. When possible, the inclusion of an opening act will be announced ahead of time, however artists will sometimes bring a surprise opener with them.

Lebanon Opera House is reopening next week with a new look after five months of renovations — just in time for the performing arts center to celebrate its 100th year. The time on your ticket is when the show is scheduled to start. Of course, some artists are more punctual than others!

Wheelchair Seating

Unless otherwise noted, prices for seniors are 65 and older and children are 17 and younger. On occasion, a show will have “student” pricing which includes any student currently enrolled in an educational institution, with a valid student ID. Children younger than two who will sit on a lap do not need a ticket. Two gender-specific restrooms (i.e. Men’s and Women’s) may be accessed from the LOH lobby.

LOH@100

Biking from the South is possible for advanced cyclists via Rt. 120. Doors usually open 30 minutes before show time and we recommend arriving in Lebanon at least 45 minutes before the start of a show. For most shows, late patrons will wait outside the theater with an usher before being escorted into the theater during a suitable pause. This allows us to minimize the disturbance to the artists and patrons.

Very rarely, LOH will authorize the sale of tickets for less than face value through third party vendors. LOH has the right to cancel ticket transactions that are suspected of being purchased for the sole purpose of reselling (scalping). A temporary passenger loading area is available for drop-off and pick-up with a direct, no-elevation entrance into LOH. It is located in the front of the theater with accessible entry through the City Hall Main Entrance on the east side of the building. The Lebanon Opera House has new merchandise in conjunction with the completion of their renovation. May not be reprinted or used online without permission.

A reception is planned for Friday evening, and the show is on view through March 30. Hearst Television participates in various affiliate marketing programs, which means we may get paid commissions on editorially chosen products purchased through our links to retailer sites. Recent renovations are breathing new life into a piece of history in the Upper Valley.

A fold-down raised platform designed to allow a person to change a child’s diaper. Changing tables can be located in both of the gendered restrooms (i.e. Men’s and Women’s) located in the LOH lobby. Assistive listening devices help to amplify and clarify sound by cutting down or eliminating ambient noise.

The plan to repair the music hall’s plasterwork, repaint it and carry out other repairs, including a replacement of the stage floor, was underway before she took the Chandler job. All told, the work is expected to cost around $175,000, all of it coming from grants and donations, including funding from the Vermont Arts Council and the Vermont Preservation Trust. The construction work was budgeted at $3.1 million and is on time and within budget, Clifford said. The nonprofit that leases the opera house from the city of Lebanon is raising all of the construction funding through private grants and donations. About $3.8 million of the $4.2 million goal has been raised so far, Clifford said. The remaining money left to raise will pay for sound equipment the opera house can use for community events around the city.

The doors to the theater usually open 30 minutes before showtime. In the case of General Admission shows, be aware that there may be a line forming up to one hour before a show in the lobby. The box office is open from noon to 5pm Monday through Friday, and our lobby Box Office Station opens one hour before the scheduled show time. The Box Office Station is open through the first intermission, and we ask that purchases for other shows take place during that intermission. Additional accessible seating may be available upon request at the time of ticket purchase.

Lebanon Opera House is reopening next week with a new look after five months of renovations — just in time for the performing arts center to celebrate its 100th year. The time on your ticket is when the show is scheduled to start. Of course, some artists are more punctual than others!

Music

This entrance is unlocked one hour prior to performance time. The $3.4 million renovation builds upon the art deco aesthetic of the space, located on the second floor of Lebanon City Hall, just over the New Hampshire border. Upgrades include LED stage lighting, new dressing rooms, plywood subfloor and carpeting, roomier theater seats with cupholders, fresh paint, and custom chandeliers. The public can see the updated venue at a free housewarming party on Wednesday, February 7, complete with a cash bar, DJ and dancing. The opera house has raised about $3.8 million so far, according to Clifford.

Arts

Either way the show will start with the opening act at the advertised time and the headliner will follow. If a show is billed as “an evening with”, there is no opening act. Active TransitOutdoor bike racks are available adjacent to the City Hall entrance on the east side of the building. LOH is located a few hundred feet from the entrance to the Northern Rail Trail via Spencer Street or Campbell Street. Recommended bike routes from points North include Mount Support Road to Hanover Street, from the East along Mechanic Street, and from the West along the Northern Rail Trail or Bank Street.

Tickets to some performances may be returned to the box office at any time before a show as a tax-deductible donation to Lebanon Opera House. Powell and the Chandler’s board are working to put the organization on firmer footing. Over the past decade, the Chandler has had a half-dozen directors after the departure of longtime leader Becky McMeekin.

From Rt. 91 North (Vermont)Go past Exit 1 and pick up exit to I-89 South. From the NorthTake I-89 to exit 18, make a right from the exit ramp and go a short distance to the stop sign. Restrooms are available, many artists provide merchandise for sale, and often we invite local nonprofits to provide light refreshments and to meet our audience. If you are planning on dining out before the show, there are several nearby restaurants within walking distance. Among the many art shows opening or on display Friday night in White River Junction is a show of paintings by White River Junction artist Bradley William Mehr at the Main Street Museum.

Please check the event listing for additional details, as the seating may vary on an event-by-event basis. As you approach the Green, look for a large, red brick building with white columns and a clock tower on the north side of the park. LOH is accessible from street level at the front of the building and by elevator to the Lobby and Orchestra level through the City Hall entrance on the east side of the building. Like Lebanon Opera House, the Chandler did a big renovation and expansion for its centennial, in 2007. But that project didn’t include repainting the music hall, which hadn’t been done since the 1990s, said Chloe Powell, who’s celebrating her first year as Chandler’s executive director.

"For a long time, we were trying to fit ourselves into the city hall building," Clifford said. "Now, we're making a space comfortable for our essential purposes, which is about welcoming people to the theater." Built in 1924, the historic space initially served as a vaudeville theater.

The recent renovation was entirely funded by donors as part of a campaign to raise $4.2 million for the opera house in advance of its centennial. The refresh transforms the venue into a modern theater, Clifford said. New stage lighting brings the theater in line with industry standards, he explained, and attendees can sit more comfortably in wider seats with more legroom. The Opera House seats 803, including eight transfer seats with removable armrests and two spaces for wheelchairs. The orchestra level holds 582 and there are 221 seats in the balcony, with room for up to 20 to stand in the rear of the theater. Tickets are sometimes available through artists’ fan club sites as pre-sales or special VIP packages.

The residency includes workshops and performances with the Upper Valley Music Center. “It’s pretty amazing to see what the space looks like,” Joe Clifford, the opera house’s executive director, said in a phone interview. The opera house is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year and officials say the improvements will help keep the theater viable for the next century. Unless otherwise noted, shows at Lebanon Opera House are all ages. Children younger than two will be admitted free (sitting on a lap), otherwise, everyone must have a ticket.

The open house will conclude with a dance party with DJ Sean. At this time, we are not intentionally searching bags. We do withhold the right to request a bag search if we suspect a patron is smoking or vaping in the venue, carrying food or alcohol, or has items intended to harm the audience. If you need access to any of these seats, or have other questions about our accessibility features, please contact the LOH Box Office. If you don’t receive the email check your spam or junk folder for the confirmation. Smoking and vaping are 100% prohibited and will not be tolerated.

Through its many incarnations, the opera house has always served as a community gathering place, Clifford said. In its centennial year, Lebanon Opera House will welcome big names such as "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 9 winner Sasha Velour (March 4). The opera house will also host a 100th birthday celebration in October. During high-energy, music performances, you are allowed to stand at your seat. You are also allowed to stand at the rear of the auditorium.

There are three designated smoking areas a short walk from the doors of LOH, including one across the street at the northeast corner of Colburn Park. Lebanon Opera House strives to provide access to all events and programs to everyone regardless of age, ability, gender, sexual orientation, or economic standing. LOH endeavors to identify barriers to this goal and make improvements to ensure our venue can be accessed by all. There is plenty of free parking on nearby streets and in the large public lots behind the theater. Make a left from the exit ramp and follow Rt. 4 a few miles into downtown Lebanon. This famed "pop music in a time machine" ensemble reimagines modern earworms in classic genres like 1920s jazz, swing, doo-wop, and Motown.

These devices are free of charge and may be requested in advance by emailing or at the Box Office on the day of the event. Please note the ALDs are not compatible with hearing aids. From I-91 South (Massachusetts, Vermont)Go to exit 10S and follow signs onto I-89. Take I-89 to exit 18, make a right from the exit ramp and go a short distance to the stop sign. Turn left onto Hanover Street, and follow this about 1/2 mile to the Lebanon Green.

Unlike Lebanon Opera House, with its larger community and donor base, the Chandler operates on thinner margins. In Powell, it has a new young director with local ties. Chandler’s reopening includes both a partnership with a community organization and a boundary-pushing classical performance. The partnership is with Vermont Public, which will hold an installment of its “Homegoings” series, hosted by Randolph native Myra Flynn, on Feb. 17. Clifford is particularly looking forward to an early-April residency by the String Queens, a string trio pushing the boundaries of classical music.

Offenbach’s smash-hit operetta is this summer’s hottest party in hell—a comedic romp through Hades. If the Upper Valley is to have heart, it must also have art.

It was converted into a movie theater in 1951, closed in 1969 and reopened in 1975 with a remodel that could accommodate live performances. In 1991, the City of Lebanon established a nonprofit to take over management of the facility. Ten years later, the theater was again remodeled with the installation of a freight elevator and expansion of backstage and green rooms.

Last May, Commissioner LaTourette advanced the Liberty State Park Revitalization Program with an initial open house event showcasing plans for Phase 1A – the cleanup and restoration of the long fenced-off interior area of the park. A groundbreaking ceremony for Phase 1A was later held in October alongside a second open house event focused on Phase 1B – Liberty State Park’s northern area and immediate active recreation, arts and culture improvements. Santa Rosa – Today, Reps. Mike Thompson (CA-04) and Jared Huffman (CA-02) were joined by realtors, home builders, agriculture leaders, insurance leaders, and fire survivors for a press conference at Santa Rosa’s Coffey Park in support of H.R. 7849, The Disaster Resiliency and Coverage Act of 2024, to help address California’s property insurance crisis. When Kiwi Property Group last week announced tours of its new 295-unit Resido, people asked if those fees from about $695 to more than $900 per week included car parks. Other buildings on the campus in Arcata are at risk of being occupied, and protesters “have shown a willingness” to lock themselves in facilities and steal equipment, the officials said.

The carriage barn was built in 1899 on the grounds of what is now Pasadena's Huntington Memorial Hospital for Dr. Osborne, a member of the hospital's staff. Its architectural style is Queen Anne Cottage with Gothic Revival influences. It has three gables and a distinctive pitched roof.The barn was saved from demolition and moved to the Heritage Square Museum in 1981. The Ford House was built in 1887 as part of a large tract of simple middle-class homes in downtown Los Angeles built by the Beaudry Brothers.

These projects were priced a long time ago and there’s been a lot of cost escalations,” Mikkelsen said in early April. As a former block club vice president, Washington agreed, and said there should be more programs focused on repairing existing structures instead of tearing them down, as a way to preserve Englewood for the next generation of kids. Bertha Gee, who has lived in her West Englewood home for nearly 70 years, said she’d been disappointed about recent developments in the area, saying sometimes companies will “throw anything up” on an empty lot.

The home is particularly interesting because of its inhabitant – John J. Ford, a well-known wood carver. Ford's works include carvings for the California State Capitol, the Iolani Palace in Hawaii, and Leland Stanford's private railroad car. Because of his occupation, the exterior and interior carvings were all done by hand in ornate, one-of-a-kind patterns.

The building is an outstanding example of the Queen Anne and Eastlake styles. The outward sweep of the entrance stairway, the sculpted brackets under the eaves, the slanted bay windows, and the narrow Corinthian columns are characteristic of its Victorian Italianate style. In 1975, the house was moved from 1315 Mount Pleasant Street to the museum grounds, and restoration was begun by the Colonial Dames Society of America. The museum focuses on interpreting the years 1850 to 1950, a century of unprecedented growth in Los Angeles. Volunteer interpreters give thorough tours that incorporate the history, architecture, and culture of the region.

"The university is a private campus and the group had been violating some of their orders. It was a trespass at that point and we assisted with the arrests," Los Angeles Police Captain Kelly Muniz said during a briefing. The Los Angeles Police Department said 93 people were arrested on suspicion of trespassing during Wednesday's demonstrations at the University of Southern California. When he's not writing about local events, he enjoys focusing on sports and entertainment. Irving Boulevard in the Windsor Square district of Hancock Park, has been the official residence of the Los Angeles Mayor since 1977. Bass and her family have lived in the home since early 2023 after she was elected to the position.

She said she preferred the preservation of homes in which she watched her children and neighborhood kids grow up. Ramirez said while the group has focused on Englewood the last three years, they’ll likely shift to neighborhoods on the West Side to help upkeep other parts of the city. Volunteer Sean Cameron, a project manager at Ryan Companies, cuts wood planks on South Morgan Street in Englewood during Rebuilding Together Metro Chicago’s National Rebuilding Day event Saturday. About 1,500 volunteers from different construction companies and unions helped repair more 60 homes in Englewood and Park Forest. The Los Angeles Police Department arrested approximately 50 protestors at the University of Southern California after campus police gave a dispersal order to demonstrators, according to a CNN crew at the scene. The board said it is "urgently working" with Shafik to resolve the unrest on campus and "rebuild the bonds of our community."

Other specialized living history events, lectures, and items of historical interest are given on a periodic basis. In late 2022, Bass' Baldwin Hills home was burglarized by at least two people. The suspects stole two firearms from the property before being arrested several days later. This incident came in the midst of Bass' run for office as the mayor, while she still a member of the United States House of Representatives. Soak up the scenery and kick off summer with a ride in one of the dreamy swan boats available to rent, and be sure to pay your respects to the elegant Lady of the Lake statue while in the area.

Tucked just below Paramount Studios and about five miles east of Beverly Hills sits Hancock Park, a hundred-year-old Los Angeles neighborhood with a rich history. When available, Beverly Park neighborhood information will be included along with local schools and similar homes for sale in the zip code. Select residences have panoramic, city-to-ocean views, including city lights at night. Lot sizes here are large, ranging from no less than 1.21 acres up to 9.86 acres. CC&Rs from the homeowners' association stipulate a 5,000 square foot minimum, but none of the houses are that small.

The open house will be focused on the planning of new amenities for the southern and waterfront areas of the park known as LSP-South, the second phase of the LSP Revitalization Program. The California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt campus will remain closed through the weekend as protesters, including "unidentified non-students," continue to occupy two buildings, school officials said in an update. During the rapid urban expansion of the 1960s, Victorian buildings in Los Angeles were being demolished at an alarming rate. The Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument program, established in 1961, could evaluate properties and list-register them, but not protect them. In 1969, at the request of the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission, a group of concerned citizens established the Cultural Heritage Foundation to counteract this destruction.

Beverly Park, CA, is located within the city limits of Los Angeles but is part of the Beverly Hills Post Office (BHPO) area. This celebrity enclave, established in 1990, is among the most popular places for homebuyers to consider if they are looking for an exclusive, guard-gated community with excellent jetliner and canyon views. In addition, the legislation establishes that payments from state-run disaster resiliency programs and payments from various federal emergency agricultural programs are not considered income for federal tax purposes. It also advises states to direct insurers to consider plan owners’ disaster mitigation efforts when setting premiums. The city recently poured $1.1 million in improvements to the former reservoir turned public recreation area, including trimming trees, renovating the boathouse, enhancing the kids’ play area, and removing a reported 35 tons of trash from the lake. Included in the renovation was the forced removal of over 200 people who were living in the park while experiencing homelessness, which was met with criticism from locals and advocates alike.

Though some celebrities and prominent figures have moved westward in pursuit of ocean views, Hancock Park remains prized both by tourists looking to catch a glimpse of the city’s past and by locals with an eye for architecture and mature foliage. Below, we spotlight some of the 21st century’s most prominent stars who’ve enjoyed the centrality and beauty of Hancock Park. Planning is now underway for LSP-South, the second phase of the Revitalization Program, which includes the southern and waterfront areas of the park. LSP-South will include multiple new outdoor public recreation opportunities, including a 50+ acre Southern Athletics Hub to complement the Northern Athletics Hub planned for LSP-South along Audrey Zapp Drive. Initial concepts include multipurpose fields, a track and field complex, a cricket field, court and racquet sports such as basketball and pickleball, and adventure sports, including skateboarding, among others. TRENTON — On Saturday, May 11 at Liberty State Park, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection will host the third in its series of open house-style events focused on the LSP Revitalization Program.

Winding through its quiet streets, drivers will pass gorgeous properties with park-like grounds and sprawling lawns. The legislation also provides a 30 percent tax credit for these mitigation activities conducted by individuals, farms, and businesses. The credit complements the grant program by providing meaningful assistance to larger property owners for whom mitigation activity costs would far exceed $10,000. Congressman Thompson’s proposed legislation turns it around and points it in the right direction,” said City of Rohnert Park Mayor, Susan Hollingsworth-Adams. Wanda Ramirez, CEO of Rebuilding Together Metro Chicago, says the work-heavy celebration is an important tool to keep neighborhoods together and ensure people aren’t displaced from the communities where they have lived for decades. The Salt Box was one of the last homes on Bunker Hill, and one of the first moved to the Heritage Square Museum grounds.

He says younger people are moving into the area — including his nephews, who had just stopped by to see the “new” place — and he wants the area to keep its character for them. Robert Washington, who has lived in the same home in Englewood for 20 years, stands inside his newly painted living room Saturday during Rebuilding Together Metro Chicago’s National Rebuilding Day. More than 60 homes in Englewood, West Englewood and suburban Park Forest had repairs or the finishing touches done. Work ranged from installing mobility aids like grab bars to overhauling large parts of electrical and plumbing systems. The renovations were part of National Rebuilding Day, an unofficial holiday that’s celebrated by Rebuilding Together Metro Chicago and its network of 1,500 volunteers from local unions and businesses on every last Saturday of April.

This thoughtful planning attracted not only prominent residents, but well-known architects of the time, too, including Southern California architecture golden boy Wallace Neff and Hoover Dam architect Gordon Kaufmann. In 2008, the area was named one of L.A.’s Historic Preservation Overlay Zones, ensuring that the gorgeous buildings of the area won’t be wiped out anytime soon, nor will anything be added that could distract from their beauty. If you're buying a home, our full-service Beverly Park real estate agents are at-the-ready to assist you with private tours. You can also review exterior features like whether the home has a swimming pool, lot size, as well as the architectural style of the home. If any appliances or fixtures are included with the sale, those will also be noted.

Given the statements above, it's evident that the luxury homes and mansions for sale in Beverly Park are very pricey, much higher than the Los Angeles County average. The housing stock consists entirely of single-family residences (mansions and estates). Many of them were intricately constructed of several different materials, some with a great deal of skill and artistry. And I could not help wondering at the time how there was such a disparity in that city between the extremely wealthy and so many poor people living in these shacks.

By incentivizing homeowners to mitigate disaster risks on their property, the legislation will help bring insurers back into the market and lower rates. “As insurers increasingly pull out of housing markets, California homeowners and business owners are struggling to find coverage,” said Thompson. “At the same time, the climate crisis is causing natural disasters to intensify, and families are increasingly relying on their insurers to help them rebuild. For example, those same families who relied on insurance to help rebuild their homes following the 2017 Tubbs Fire in Coffey Park are no longer able to get coverage. Were disaster to strike today, many families wouldn’t recover — and that’s unacceptable.
