Danielle visits the Greenport Auditorium for this month's Long Island's Hidden Past podcast.
The auditorium, built in 1894, is on Preservation Long Island's list of historic Long Island places to save. Danielle talks to Preservation Long Island's Sarah Kautz to learn the history of the Queen Anne-style auditorium.
Popular dramas, musicals and bands, played, pranced and danced across the theater's well-built stage. It was also used as a community center. The theater served as an active performance space until the hurricane of 1938.
Its current owners are now considering retiring and are interested in restoring the theater to its original use.
