Our Historic Journey

From the ashes of the 1947 fire rose the "New Dream," an Art Deco masterpiece designed by the legendary Boller Brothers. Today, the Dream Theatre stands as a proud monument to Russell’s resilience and a legacy for future generations.

Born in 1923. Rebuilt in 1949.

Saved by The Community in 2000.

The Welcome Mat Is Out

At the Dream Theatre, we believe in the power of a shared experience, and we would love to hear from you. Whether you are inquiring about private rentals and sponsorships, looking to join our team of volunteers, or simply want to share a suggestion for our concession stand, our doors and our ears are always open. Our Board of Directors reviews every suggestion to ensure we are providing the best possible experience for our community—because at our historic landmark, your voice truly  matters.
