The Egyptian Theatre is a 1929, fully restored, Egyptian Art Deco movie palace, that is operated and staffed by the volunteer non-profit group, P.E.T. Inc. (Preservation of Egyptian Theatre, Inc.). Listed on the Registry of Historic Places, the Egyptian is home to over 25 local performing arts groups, shows classic films and is host to over 125 events every year.

Amazingly the theatre seats are still the original seats installed in 1929 when the theatre opened. This is no surprise to anyone who attends events at the theatre as they are witness to the uncomfortable and worn seats. After nearly 80 years it is now time to retire the existing seats and join together as a community to reclaim the glamour of the Egyptian.

The Egyptian Theatre Seating Sponsorship Campaign offers you a unique opportunity to create a prominent legacy in this historic landmark. Your donation to the Egyptian Theatre will place the name of your family, friend or business in the spotlight. Your donation is commemorated with a personalized elegant brass plaque that will be mounted on a new seat. All other financial donations towards the seating sponsorship campaign will be recognized on a plaque in the theatre lobby.

Please consider making a donation to The Egyptian Theatre Seating Sponsorship Campaign and help continue the preservation of this treasure in our community. This is the first time since 1929 that the seats are being replaced. What a wonderful and special opportunity to get involved!

Help us achieve this goal and reclaim the glamour of the Egyptian Theatre.

Would you also like a piece of history? We will be selling the existing historic seats to the general public prior to the installation of the new seats to help clear the way for the new seats. More information will be posted when available.
