The History of The "Hank"

A theatre this old has history as equally entertaining as the shows that continue to appear season after season. In 1961, next to the Strater Hotel was a dusty old car garage that was screaming for a transformation. The vision was of burgundy and rose and the idea was to entertain locals and tourist for years to come. The unique and attractive theatre opened its doors on June 23rd, 1962 with rave reviews earning national acclaims for the Four Corners area. TIME Magazine raved that the theatre was one of the top theatres during its premier summer season.

 

The Henry Strater Theatre’s debut show was the off-Broadway and Las Vegas hit "Forever Plaid." The show sold out opening night and continued to bring in sold out crowds to cheer on the fun and enthusiastic performers. In 2009, The Hank also brought in the Broadway classic "Dames at Sea," which enjoyed a summer of sold-out, family friendly entertainment. The theatre plans to continue to bring in different varieties of world renowned shows including comedy, bands, musicals, drama, magic and mystery, cabaret, and more!

 

Again this year, the Hank is brining the classic Durango Melodrama and Vaudeville show home! They will also continue to offer the popular and delectable Dinner Theatre package! Enjoy a world-class meal from the Mahogany Grille and an evening of fun and entertainment, all at one great low price. For the Dinner Theatre menu, simply click below:
