Puzzled patrons find theater shut

The show will go on at Modern Theater-Coeur d’Alene — eventually.

At least, that’s the word from theater representatives on Monday after season ticket holders reported being surprised to find the theater closed last weekend.

Barb Hoffman and her husband, Lee, planned to end their Saturday evening out by attending a performance at the Garden Street theater. When they arrived, they found the doors were locked, the lights were off and no one was there.

The Hoffmans, season ticket holders from Coeur d’Alene, checked their email, junk mail and the theater’s website, looking for a reason the theater was closed. They never found it.

“I’m sure there are a lot of people who want to know what’s going on,” Barb Hoffman said. “This isn’t a very good way to treat your season ticket holders.”

The Hoffmans aren’t the only ones concerned about the fate of the Lake City theater and tickets they’ve already paid for/ Bethany Blitz , Coeur d’Alene Press. More here.
