Fountain Hills Theater is celebrating 40 years of existence in 2026.
The theater was first established in 1986 and has brought countless shows to Fountain Hills audiences over the last four decades.
“It’s amazing for me, having been a founding member of this theater, seeing every chair that went in and negotiating every building that we have, and knowing everyone from the first mayor and town manager to now,” board president and former executive director Val Stasik said. “In those 40 years, I’ve seen my son be our first Tiny Tim in our very first production of “A Christmas Carol.” He was maybe seven at the time, and is now an adult with kids of his own.”
