Corn Stock Theatre finds temporary home at Dunlap High School
PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — Those who were worried that Corn Stock Theatre might not have a place to operate this summer should not worry. The theater company found a temporary home at Dunlap High School. On Friday, Corn Stock announced on its Facebook page this season's first four shows would be at Dunlap High School. 'The show dates and times will remain the same for our first four shows, 9 to 5, Pride & Prejudice, The Wizard of Oz and A Few Good Men,' the post stated. After that, they will return back to Upper Bradley Park and the Corn Stock Theatre Center. 'Oklahoma will finish out August in our Theatre Center building. Followed by our kids show Bugsy Malone Jr, Frankenstein and ending the year with A Christmas Carol,' the post said. Season ticket holders, the post said, will be contacted to arrange for seating at the school. Tickets go on sale for '9 to 5' on May 9. Earlier, Corn Stock Theatre announced, also on Facebook, that the new tent will not be built in time for its summer productions. 'Due to some building delays and unforeseen circumstances, the new tent WILL go up, but it will not be in time for our summer season,' the earlier post said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
