About Buskirk-Chumley Theater

Tired of the same old? The Buskirk-Chumley Theater is available to rent for any sort of private event, from parties to business meeting spaces to celebrations of life. Whether you are looking to host a corporate training retreat or a family reunion we are here to help every step of the way – from planning to technical needs to clean up! The historic Buskirk-Chumley Theater is a versatile location for any style of wedding. Looking for fun? One couple invited friends and family to perform a talent show on the stage during the reception. Seeking elegance? This 1922 theater takes you back in time. Do you want to dance? The stage or the orchestra pit can be used as a dance floor; this venue offers plenty of options for music and entertainment and adding our disco ball is a must. Don’t forget about the marquee, which will welcome guests to your big day, along with the flashing lights of the historic “Indiana” sign.
