For 60 years, Market House Theatre has grown a loyal audience and it’s still growing!
Our shows appeal to a wide variety of people, and each performance brings new people to our theatre. Nearly three-quarters of our audience comes from Paducah and the majority of the rest travel from within a 50-mile radius.
Ticket purchases and class fees from our youth programs account for less than one half of our annual operating budget.
Your business can help MHT keep prices affordable for our community and help our Youth Education program serve children though programs like Theatre in Schools, Story Theatre, DanceMHT, and more! Opportunities start at just $300 and can be tailored to meet your marketing needs.
