The Cedarville Opera House was originally constructed in 1886 and became the center of community life for over 60 years. It hosted many musical, educational, theatrical, and even political programs. In 1956, because of greater accessibility and interest in outside entertainment, the Opera House closed its doors and was not used for the next 30 years. In the early 1980s, citizens took a revived interest in the opera house and, in 1984, the Cedarville Opera House was placed on the Historic Preservation Commission of Cedarville. Citizens helped restore and rebuild the building, and in 1994 the Cedarville Opera House reopened. The following year, the Cedarville Opera House Society was formed. Since then, a full array of programs including music, theater, and literary recitals have been held for the enjoyment of the public.

Springfield OH makes a great destination roadtrip! There are 3 huge antique malls, one of the largest monthly antique shows in the nation, and there’s lots of history too. You can tour Frank Lloyd Wright’s Westcott House, the Pennsylvania House (the “Inn at the end of the Pike”) on Rt. 40, and Clark County’s Heritage Center and Museum that covers an entire city block and houses more than 200,000 artifacts chronicling Clark County and Ohio’s history. You’ll be in awe of the turn-of-the-century industrialist mansions that line East High Street as well as Ohio Governor Asa Bushnell’s former home. There are lots of choices for meals as well as places to stay, too. Check out the Springfield, Ohio inset for addresses and phone numbers. Come and spend a day. We’re sure you will want to stay longer! Tell them we sent you. Nancy
