"For a long time, we were trying to fit ourselves into the city hall building," Clifford said. "Now, we're making a space comfortable for our essential purposes, which is about welcoming people to the theater." Built in 1924, the historic space initially served as a vaudeville theater.

Either way the show will start with the opening act at the advertised time and the headliner will follow. If a show is billed as “an evening with”, there is no opening act. Active TransitOutdoor bike racks are available adjacent to the City Hall entrance on the east side of the building. LOH is located a few hundred feet from the entrance to the Northern Rail Trail via Spencer Street or Campbell Street. Recommended bike routes from points North include Mount Support Road to Hanover Street, from the East along Mechanic Street, and from the West along the Northern Rail Trail or Bank Street.

LOH on Location: Pride Picnic

The recent renovation was entirely funded by donors as part of a campaign to raise $4.2 million for the opera house in advance of its centennial. The refresh transforms the venue into a modern theater, Clifford said. New stage lighting brings the theater in line with industry standards, he explained, and attendees can sit more comfortably in wider seats with more legroom. The Opera House seats 803, including eight transfer seats with removable armrests and two spaces for wheelchairs. The orchestra level holds 582 and there are 221 seats in the balcony, with room for up to 20 to stand in the rear of the theater. Tickets are sometimes available through artists’ fan club sites as pre-sales or special VIP packages.

Parking

It was converted into a movie theater in 1951, closed in 1969 and reopened in 1975 with a remodel that could accommodate live performances. In 1991, the City of Lebanon established a nonprofit to take over management of the facility. Ten years later, the theater was again remodeled with the installation of a freight elevator and expansion of backstage and green rooms.

From Rt. 91 North (Vermont)Go past Exit 1 and pick up exit to I-89 South. From the NorthTake I-89 to exit 18, make a right from the exit ramp and go a short distance to the stop sign. Restrooms are available, many artists provide merchandise for sale, and often we invite local nonprofits to provide light refreshments and to meet our audience. If you are planning on dining out before the show, there are several nearby restaurants within walking distance. Among the many art shows opening or on display Friday night in White River Junction is a show of paintings by White River Junction artist Bradley William Mehr at the Main Street Museum.

Upcoming Events

Through its many incarnations, the opera house has always served as a community gathering place, Clifford said. In its centennial year, Lebanon Opera House will welcome big names such as "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 9 winner Sasha Velour (March 4). The opera house will also host a 100th birthday celebration in October. During high-energy, music performances, you are allowed to stand at your seat. You are also allowed to stand at the rear of the auditorium.

LOH is the Art & Soul of the Upper Valley

The residency includes workshops and performances with the Upper Valley Music Center. “It’s pretty amazing to see what the space looks like,” Joe Clifford, the opera house’s executive director, said in a phone interview. The opera house is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year and officials say the improvements will help keep the theater viable for the next century. Unless otherwise noted, shows at Lebanon Opera House are all ages. Children younger than two will be admitted free (sitting on a lap), otherwise, everyone must have a ticket.

Tickets to some performances may be returned to the box office at any time before a show as a tax-deductible donation to Lebanon Opera House. Powell and the Chandler’s board are working to put the organization on firmer footing. Over the past decade, the Chandler has had a half-dozen directors after the departure of longtime leader Becky McMeekin.

Please check the event listing for additional details, as the seating may vary on an event-by-event basis. As you approach the Green, look for a large, red brick building with white columns and a clock tower on the north side of the park. LOH is accessible from street level at the front of the building and by elevator to the Lobby and Orchestra level through the City Hall entrance on the east side of the building. Like Lebanon Opera House, the Chandler did a big renovation and expansion for its centennial, in 2007. But that project didn’t include repainting the music hall, which hadn’t been done since the 1990s, said Chloe Powell, who’s celebrating her first year as Chandler’s executive director.

These devices are free of charge and may be requested in advance by emailing or at the Box Office on the day of the event. Please note the ALDs are not compatible with hearing aids. From I-91 South (Massachusetts, Vermont)Go to exit 10S and follow signs onto I-89. Take I-89 to exit 18, make a right from the exit ramp and go a short distance to the stop sign. Turn left onto Hanover Street, and follow this about 1/2 mile to the Lebanon Green.

There are three designated smoking areas a short walk from the doors of LOH, including one across the street at the northeast corner of Colburn Park. Lebanon Opera House strives to provide access to all events and programs to everyone regardless of age, ability, gender, sexual orientation, or economic standing. LOH endeavors to identify barriers to this goal and make improvements to ensure our venue can be accessed by all. There is plenty of free parking on nearby streets and in the large public lots behind the theater. Make a left from the exit ramp and follow Rt. 4 a few miles into downtown Lebanon. This famed "pop music in a time machine" ensemble reimagines modern earworms in classic genres like 1920s jazz, swing, doo-wop, and Motown.

This entrance is unlocked one hour prior to performance time. The $3.4 million renovation builds upon the art deco aesthetic of the space, located on the second floor of Lebanon City Hall, just over the New Hampshire border. Upgrades include LED stage lighting, new dressing rooms, plywood subfloor and carpeting, roomier theater seats with cupholders, fresh paint, and custom chandeliers. The public can see the updated venue at a free housewarming party on Wednesday, February 7, complete with a cash bar, DJ and dancing. The opera house has raised about $3.8 million so far, according to Clifford.

Offenbach’s smash-hit operetta is this summer’s hottest party in hell—a comedic romp through Hades. If the Upper Valley is to have heart, it must also have art.

If you don’t see this when ordering then your purchase has not been completed. LOH does not allow flash photography as it can be distracting to other patrons. The individual artists often have their own policies, but many allow non-flash photography with personal use cameras and prohibit video recording. More restrictive photo policies will be posted and announced at the show.

The lobby, box office, rest rooms and orchestra level of the theater are accessible by elevator, which is located through the City Office entrance on the on the east side of the building. We have two dedicated wheelchair seats in the orchestra section, each with companion seats. In addition to the wheelchair seats we also have 8 seats at the end of selected rows with arm rests that fold up for those with limited mobility. The lobby, box office, restrooms, and orchestra level of the theater are accessible by elevator, which is located through the City Office entrance on the on the east side of the building.

Unless otherwise noted, prices for seniors are 65 and older and children are 17 and younger. On occasion, a show will have “student” pricing which includes any student currently enrolled in an educational institution, with a valid student ID. Children younger than two who will sit on a lap do not need a ticket. Two gender-specific restrooms (i.e. Men’s and Women’s) may be accessed from the LOH lobby.

Biking from the South is possible for advanced cyclists via Rt. 120. Doors usually open 30 minutes before show time and we recommend arriving in Lebanon at least 45 minutes before the start of a show. For most shows, late patrons will wait outside the theater with an usher before being escorted into the theater during a suitable pause. This allows us to minimize the disturbance to the artists and patrons.

A fold-down raised platform designed to allow a person to change a child’s diaper. Changing tables can be located in both of the gendered restrooms (i.e. Men’s and Women’s) located in the LOH lobby. Assistive listening devices help to amplify and clarify sound by cutting down or eliminating ambient noise.

The plan to repair the music hall’s plasterwork, repaint it and carry out other repairs, including a replacement of the stage floor, was underway before she took the Chandler job. All told, the work is expected to cost around $175,000, all of it coming from grants and donations, including funding from the Vermont Arts Council and the Vermont Preservation Trust. The construction work was budgeted at $3.1 million and is on time and within budget, Clifford said. The nonprofit that leases the opera house from the city of Lebanon is raising all of the construction funding through private grants and donations. About $3.8 million of the $4.2 million goal has been raised so far, Clifford said. The remaining money left to raise will pay for sound equipment the opera house can use for community events around the city.

Arts

Local non-profit organizations often sell light snacks/desserts and non-alcoholic beverages in the lobby before a show and during intermission. Food or drink (except water) are not allowed in the theater so all refreshments must be consumed in the lobby. Because LOH is located in a municipal building, no alcohol is allowed on the premises. If you bring your ID to box office, we can almost always re-print your tickets. When possible, the inclusion of an opening act will be announced ahead of time, however artists will sometimes bring a surprise opener with them.

For young children, please be aware that many events at LOH are loud (85dBA+); feel free to bring protective headphones for your child or use your hands to cover their ears. Certain shows may have age restrictions but that will be evident on the event sales page online. This private, single-stall restroom is available for use by anyone. Find it on Level 1 where the City of Lebanon meeting rooms are located. The opera house is the same, in most respects, as it was when it opened in 1924, but the renovation will make it seem “new and fresh” to patrons, Clifford said. The upgrades include new seats and lighting, marking the opera house's 100th anniversary.

Unlike Lebanon Opera House, with its larger community and donor base, the Chandler operates on thinner margins. In Powell, it has a new young director with local ties. Chandler’s reopening includes both a partnership with a community organization and a boundary-pushing classical performance. The partnership is with Vermont Public, which will hold an installment of its “Homegoings” series, hosted by Randolph native Myra Flynn, on Feb. 17. Clifford is particularly looking forward to an early-April residency by the String Queens, a string trio pushing the boundaries of classical music.

The doors to the theater usually open 30 minutes before showtime. In the case of General Admission shows, be aware that there may be a line forming up to one hour before a show in the lobby. The box office is open from noon to 5pm Monday through Friday, and our lobby Box Office Station opens one hour before the scheduled show time. The Box Office Station is open through the first intermission, and we ask that purchases for other shows take place during that intermission. Additional accessible seating may be available upon request at the time of ticket purchase.

As you know perfectly well, the allocation to a specific house depends on the Sorting Hat’s decision. It has the extraordinary ability of legilimency, thanks to which it can recognize the characteristics of a person and designate her house that will perfectly match her personality. The Sorting Hat has a superhuman sense that will ensure that you will be assigned to a house that perfectly suits you. Perhaps it will be a noble Gryffindor, an ambitious Slytherin, a creative Ravenclaw, or a fair Hufflepuff? This extended version of the Pottermore Sorting Hat Quiz takes into account every single quiz question in order to determine your house accurately.

Draco Malfoy, with his aristocratic demeanor and relentless pursuit of excellence, embodies Slytherin's ideals. Beyond the surface, Draco's ambition to uphold the Slytherin name and his resourcefulness during times of crisis place him firmly within the house. Slytherins are not necessarily malevolent; their ambition is a driving force that propels them towards excellence, and their cunning nature ensures they are never caught unprepared. Furthermore, the common room of Gryffindor, located in Gryffindor Tower, becomes a sanctuary for these brave souls.

The Ravenclaw common room, located in a tower on the west side of Hogwarts, is a celestial haven adorned with azure and silver. The air is filled with the energy of intellectual discourse, and the shelves groan under the weight of ancient tomes and magical artifacts. Here, in the company of like-minded intellectuals, Ravenclaws find inspiration and solace in the pursuit of knowledge. Ravenclaw, founded by Rowena Ravenclaw, beckons those with an insatiable appetite for knowledge and an intellect that yearns to explore the uncharted realms of magic and beyond. The Sorting Hat, when selecting a Ravenclaw, sifts through the depths of a student's mind, seeking the spark of curiosity and the thirst for wisdom that sets them apart. Matthew Lewis took the Pottermore quiz and he was sorted into Hufflepuff.

There is also a rumor that Rowena is responsible for the design of Hogwarts. Bonnie Wright ended up in Gryffindor after she took a Hogwarts house test. Actor Kit Harington revealed in an interview that he is a member of Gryffindor. He also revealed that he is a huge Harry Potter fan in general. Pretty cool to know that Jon Snow of Game of Thrones would be a Gryffindor. This April, you’ll be able to play our official Sorting Ceremony in three new languages.

Additionally, they should also be hardworking, fair, tolerant, honest, and calm. Not many people know, but Hufflepuff students should also be creative. The house was characterized, above all, by a pleasant attitude, friendship, and mutual help.

The Sorting Hat, during the sorting process, might explore the student's past experiences where they showcased perseverance and loyalty. It could linger on moments of collaboration, teamwork, and instances where the student demonstrated a commitment to principles that extend beyond personal gain. For Hufflepuff, the Sorting Hat seeks more than just the outward display of diligence or a friendly disposition. It probes the depths of a student's character, searching for the quiet resilience, unwavering loyalty, and an unassuming work ethic that defines Hufflepuff house.
