Studio 54 @ The Agora was a Smash!

Thank You for Making the 2026 Gala a Night to Remember

For one unforgettable evening, we turned back time as only the theatre can.

Guests stepped through the velvet rope and into the dazzling world of Studio 54, where the lights were bright, the music was loud, and the dance floor was alive with energy. Together, we celebrated the power of live theatre while supporting the work of Cleveland Play House.

All proceeds from Studio 54 @ The Agora benefited Cleveland Play House's locally produced, nationally recognized productions and education programs. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors, and guests, the evening helped ensure that CPH can continue creating stories made for, by, and with Cleveland.

A Night at the Legendary Agora

In summer of 2026, Cleveland Play House transformed the iconic Agora Theater into a glittering tribute to the famed Manhattan disco club that defined an era. Guests enjoyed cocktails, dinner, a live auction, entertainment, and a dance party that carried the celebration late into the evening.
