Where: The Henry Strater Theatre, 699 Main Ave.
When: Opening on June 11 at 7:45 p.m. and running on Tuesday through Sunday throughout the summer

Several persons are suspected of a crime and the vagabond takes infinite delight in observing developments as they take place about him. Hisses, cheers and ahhh’s from the crowd are all a welcome part of the nuanced theater.

“The Tavern” shows nightly – Tuesday through Sunday – at 7:45 p.m., and shows run through Aug. 21. More information can be found at www.henrystratertheatre.com or by calling 375-7160.
