The Apollo is definitely a miracle. The theatre has stood through two world wars, a depression, an economical boom, and many other major events. The Apollo Civic Theatre represents two things – the beautiful building and the wonderful theatre organization. During the late Nineteenth and early Twentieth centuries Martinsburg did not have a lot going for it. There was one thing, though, that kept this town going – the theatres.
Yesterday My husband and I attended the matinee performance of The Diary of Anne Frank. It was our first visit to the Apollo Civic Theatre, but won't be our last.
The performance was top-notch, the admission price is affordable, and the theatre staff are cheerful and courteous.
