Penn Theatre in Plymouth Faces Closure Risk Over Tax Exemption Denial

Aug. 16, 2023 ~ The Penn Theatre in Plymouth is at risk of closure amid tax troubles, according to those who run it.

After a nonprofit bought the historic theatre, the City of Plymouth denied the group’s application for property tax exemption, as other small theatres have done in the state. WJR Senior News Analyst Marie Osborne spoke on “Focus with Paul W. Smith” about why this raises the risk of closure for the theatre.
