The Footlighters Theater is a nonprofit theater that's been holding performances for almost 100 years. It's thought to be the oldest community theater on the Main Line.
The theater began when the principal of a high school in nearby Wayne, Pennsylvania, held a meeting for anyone and everyone who was interested in creating a community theater. Originally founded in Wayne, the Footlighters moved to Berwyn in the 1970s and leased an old church for its shows. Eventually, the theater company bought the church and improved the structure. It continues to perform there to this day.
