Station Theatre (Urbana)

The Station Theatre is a small independent dramatics theatre located in downtown Urbana, Illinois. It was converted into a theatre from a Big Four Railway passenger station in 1967.[1] At that time, it was called The Depot. The building was last used as a passenger station in 1956.

The theatre was run by the Celebration Company (founded in 1972) until parting ways in recent years. The theatre continues to put up both plays and musicals.
