The F. Scott Fitzgerald Theatre and its social hall will close for nine months in late December for renovations that will improve accessibility and sound. The venue will close Tuesday, Dec. 17 and reopen Sept. 1, 2025.
The primary focus of the renovations is to improve safety and compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act standards. Changes will be made to the lobby, theater house and dressing rooms. The box office and restrooms will be expanded and wheelchair accessible.
New speakers will be installed in the theater house, upgrading the sound experience and making assisted listening devices more effective. The ADA-seating section will be expanded and modified for easier and safer access.
The box office, which will move to the Rockville Civic Center Cottage during renovations, will sell tickets for some resident company performances that will be held at alternate venues. Hours will be 2-6 p.m. Wednesday-Friday and two Saturdays per month, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
In-person box office hours will be subject to change. Tickets are always available to purchase at fscottfitzgerald.showare.com. Direct questions about the closure to [email protected].
