Built in 1884, the Thomaston Opera House serves as a cultural and educational center for the Town of Thomaston and its surrounding communities. Once inside one cannot help but admire the beautiful craftsmanship found throughout the auditorium. These are not the only attributes of the Thomaston Opera House though. Many of its recent accolades are for the community and regional-based theatre presented throughout the year. 

Our Main Stage, Arts Center and Children’s Series shows are often performed to sold out audiences and provide a level of entertainment in community theatre that is unsurpassed in the area.

THE FOURSOME by Norm Foster

June 6, 7, 12 & 13, 2008 at 8:00pm
June 8 & 15, 2008 at 2:00pm

There is no performance on Saturday, June 14, 2008 due to the 8th Annual Friends of TOH Golf Tournament.

Four old college friends meet up at their 15-year class reunion.  After attending the functions, they get together for a game of golf. What happens when four old friends get together after so many years apart? A very comical look at the teasing, old rivalries, catching up on the last 15 years and reminiscing about old school days, successes and failures. Can these characters take up again after 15 years... or must old friends remain just that... old? Come to the show and find out - it’s a warm, funny play that takes place entirely on the 18 tees of a golf course.

Directed by F. George Paris
