Our hearts are broken following the devastating fire and loss of businesses in Old Town Newhall, including The MAIN.

For more than 30 years, The MAIN, formerly the Repertory East Playhouse, has been a beloved gathering place on Main Street, a home for live theater, comedy, art exhibitions, community events and countless creative experiences.

The MAIN was always more than a performing arts space. It was a home for artists, storytellers and audiences, a place where creativity was encouraged, connections were made and art came to life.

While the building is no longer standing, the memories and connections created there will remain an important part of Old Town Newhall and our arts community.

Our thoughts are also with our neighboring businesses and everyone impacted by this tragic fire.
