The Amphitheater at the Lake is Updated

When our amphitheater was built, we had a staging area built that included a large grassy area that gave plenty of room for performances.  This year we have upgraded the stage to include a large wooden main stage with two side stages.  We now we have a study stage that will give us both room and protection from a soggy ground.

We are grateful for the donation that paid for this and the workers that made it happen.  We hope you will come see it during the performance of The Passion of Christ.

The Amphitheater on the Lake

The Amphitheater on the Lake faces Lake Palestine and circles the stage of the play's set.  The seating provides room for both bench seating and for blankets and lawn chairs to be used as well.
