Black Box Theater Renovation Campaign is On
Villanova Preparatory School alumni parents Dr. and Mrs. Stephen Maloon are the very first to purchase a donor inscription plate for the new Black Box Theater seating.
The Black Box Theater renovation began in October, when workers removed the interior walls of Ingalls Hall a single story structure built in the 1950s that previously housed a small art classroom and theater space.
Sound and lighting equipment, the seating, and other interior finishing materials are currently being delivered.
