General Info
Maples Repertory Theatre, North Missouri's Professional theatre is located in Macon, a town of 5500. In 2004, the theatre opened its first season of three shows. Five years later, the current season includes six full-scale productions, two cabaret concerts, and a series of small "Afterglow" cabarets. This amazing growth, according to Artistic Director Todd Davison, is due to the support of theatre lovers from across the region. "No one really expects a town the size of Macon to support professional theatre, " Davison says. "We are proving that great theatre is valued by people even if they don't live in a metropolitan area." The Macon area has a strong history of live theatre having supported the local community theater group for over 30 years. Even before that, touring theatre and oprea companies made regular stops in Macon going back into the 1800's. When Maples Rep opened, giving patrons a chance to see modern professional theatre, many embraced the company immediately. In the next few years, as more people learned about Maples Rep, audiences grew. A ten-year renovation project on the historic Royal Theatre ( circa 1889 ) has provided an excellent facility in which to experience live theatre in an intimate setting: a large lobby ( which doubles as a banquet hall and party room, complete with full kitchen ) paired with a handicapped-accessible, 336-seat theatre.
