Venice Theatre
Venice Theatre is a community theatre in Venice, Florida, United States.
History
The theatre operates at one of the former buildings of the Kentucky Military Institute. KMI closed its Venice campus in 1971 and Venice Theatre acquired the building on 140 West Tampa Avenue in 1973 for $78,000 (equivalent to $409,000 in 2023) and converting the building to a theatre required an additional $225,000 (equivalent to $1,179,000 in 2023).
The theater suffered extensive damage in September 2022 due to heavy rain and winds from Hurricane Ian.
