Plan the day
The Fulton Theatre is a professional regional theatre producing musicals and plays at 12 North Prince Street in Lancaster, PA.
The building went up in 1852 as Fulton Hall and opened as a performance venue on October 2, 1873, with a production of Othello; the theatre calls itself the oldest theatre in America in continuous operation, and a $9.5 million reconstruction reopened it in 1995. Musicals fill the main stage, smaller shows the fourth floor Tell Studio Theatre, and a family series runs alongside; Annie is the holiday show, November 20 to December 31, 2026.
