Photo Flash: Historian presents a Snapshot of State Theatre History

By:

The State Theatre Center for the Art's rich history comes alive when historian Ken Klabunde explores the many incarnations of State Theatre through photographs, history and stories on Sunday, October 11th at 3 PM in the Acopian Ballroom.

Tickets are $5 to Theatre Members and $10 to the General Public and can be purchased at the State Theatre Box Office, 453 Northampton Street, Easton, by phone at 610-252-3132 or online at www.statetheatre.org.

Ken Klabunde is a historian who lives in Easton, PA. He was a manager of the State Theatre in the 1970's and 80's. Closing up the theatre one night, he saw someone walk off the empty stage and later recognized the same man from a photograph. That man was J. FrEd Osterstock who had passed away in the 1950's - Fred, the Ghost.
