My wife and I ran the theater for twelve months and presented a series of concerts, plays and classic films. There just wasn’t sufficient audience interest to keep it going. It’s a charming space, but the township and county have no interest in supporting it. Too bad.

In response to a question about the Nous Theatre and its recent inactivity, personal and professional business have called Howard Hain away from Blairstown, New Jersey, so at Howard’s invitation, my wife and I have leased the theatre and will continue to operate it as the Blairstown Theater Festival at Roy’s Hall. Our first concert is on December 16th. At 94, Roy’s Hall is in terrific shape, with extraordinary acoustics, and we will be presenting most concerts, plays and recitals without any amplification. We will also be showing classic and independent films once we get our video projection system up and running. At least for the time being, the Nous Theater is on hold, and Roy’s Hall is back in operation on Blairstown’s Main Street. You can read more about us at www.blairstowntheaterfestival.com

Incidentally, this website is where I first learned about the Nous Theatre and how I contacted Howard. Terrific site.
