Description
Feliks Banel’s guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Courtney Cooper Neese, owner with her husband of the historic Roslyn Theatre in Roslyn, Washington.
Courtney Cooper Neese joined CASCADE OF HISTORY and told the story of purchasing the Roslyn Theatre just four years ago, and how she's focused on being a "guardian of the culture" - and history - of a beloved community resource, from limiting changes to the look and feel of the interior, to learning how to make "gravy style" popcorn. Courtney Cooper Neese also broke some exciting news about the old Vogue Theatre in nearby Cle Elum, Washington.
The Roslyn Theatre has participated in the State of Washington's Historic Theatre Grant Program, and Courtney Cooper Neese explains how grants have helped restore, improve and preserve the structure and ensure its continued viability.
The next Historic Theatre Grant Program application deadline is coming up on Sunday, December 21, 2025. Historic Theatre grants are a program of the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) and are administered by the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation.
