As a member of the board of directors which owns the Saenger Theatre, I thought I would write a few lines to bring things up to date. This past summer (2005) we had a business plan created for the restoration of the theatre. It has gone out to various business leaders, government agencies, funding groups, developers, and many others who have expressed interest and have the means to help. As always, we remain optimistic, though it is an uphill battle.
We won’t allow it to become a parking lot or mall however, so no fear there. We will only accept a complete restoration of the Saenger to its original form and function.
At this time however we are allowing NO tours of the building. Sorry, but it is necessary for safety and insurance reasons.
