What’s he complaining about?

The heat or just being tied to a mailbox? 

The 2025-26 Theater and Event season is shaping up to be a super season. Comedy, drama, musicals, music and fun events are coming your way.  

While you’re in your slow, catch-up time, make some time to set up your winter advertising. It is now time to support our theaters with advertising or by sponsoring a show. This support will help both our community and your business. 

  • It’s the 50th Anniversary of Rocky Horror Picture show and both  Marathon Community Theater and Waterfront Playhouse  will honor this show in October. 
  • Williams Hall this year is offering sponsorships for their different programs. Check it out.  
  • You can catch Phil Amsterdam as the auctioneer for the annual Anne McKee Fine Art Auction in February 2026 at Studios of Key West. The theme this year is Vintage Key West and Bobby Nesbitt will be our preauction entertainer. He played at the very first auction.

The program is a season long program or is just for an event but you are supporting them in more ways than you know. Plus with a few of the theaters, you receive a ticket or two to see a production as a thank you and to get to know them.

August or September deadlines: Key West Womenfest, Zombie Bike Ride, Marathon Community Theater,  Waterfront Playhouse Rocky Horror Picture Show, Key West Headdress Ball.

Early October (before Fantasy Fest) deadlines for reservations and ads are Waterfront Playhouse Season program, Tennessee Williams Theater Mainstage program,  Key West Film Festival. 

And later in October: Fringe Theater Key West,  Red Barn Theatre, Tennessee Wiliams Blackbox programs.

Act now before you forget or get too busy.
