Bucks County Playhouse

The Bucks County Playhouse is open again and is looking good!  It's wonderful that this gem has been saved and will continue to provide entertainment for the public.

During the holiday season my husband and I attended a performance of "It's a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play" at the playhouse, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.  I would rate the play as a "B".  The acting was good, but I found the  premise of the play a little less engaging. 

We were delighted with the newly renovated theater. New hardwood floors and comfortable seating have replaced the formerly shabby interior. The theater has been updated and overhauled with a new roof and many more improvements.

During the 40's and 50's, The Bucks County Playhouse hosted performances by the "Who's Who" of Hollywood and Broadway. In recent years, however, attendance declined and upkeep of the theater suffered. Now the playhouse is back.  I hope attendance will be high so this wonderful resource will become profitable and continue to be an asset to Bucks County.
