About the Business
Nestled in the heart of Mohican, the historic Loudonville Opera House, now known as the Ohio Theatre, is a treasured gem of Loudonville, Ohio. Built in 1909, this iconic building originally served as a municipal hall, fire station, and opera house. Over a century later, it continues to be a central hub for the community, housing the village offices, council chamber, police department, and a 400-seat theatre.
The Ohio Theatre gained its current name in 1931 and has since been a cultural cornerstone for the area. Its significance has been recognized by its inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places by the Department of the Interior. The theatre's operation and success are largely driven by dedicated community volunteers who handle everything from marketing to concessions and maintenance.
As a not-for-profit organization, the Loudonville Theatre & Arts Committee plays a crucial role in maintaining and renovating the theatre, ensuring its continued use for future generations. Serving as the cultural center of Loudonville for over 114 years, the Ohio Theatre is a perfect venue for local businesses to connect with the community.
While the types of entertainment have evolved over the years, the Loudonville Opera House has retained its historical integrity. The building stands as a testament to the community’s commitment to cultural promotion, representing a classic example of a combination town hall and opera house from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Reviews
"Inexpensive, nice selection of candy, & popcorn. A very pleasant evening!"
"This place would not allow me to rent because they are against spirituality and against people who give messages to those from a higher power."
"Excellent community theatre! Lots of talent in this community. The theatre recently upgraded the sound and screen which makes a huge difference."
"Phenomenal venue. We attended a play there and it was a great experience. Highly recommend people check it out."
"This is a great little theatre that has been restored. Only has about 400 seats and there isn't a bad one in the house. Staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The show was really well done also."
