With a rich history dating back to 1886, the Park Theatre has been a cherished venue for generations of movie-goers and community events.

For over six decades, the Park Theatre thrived as a beloved cultural hub, eventually closing in 1984. In December of 2001, the Park Theatre Foundation, a newly created nonprofit organization, took over ownership of the building, and a new chapter began.

Will Green

His jokes come primarily from personal experience, but his delivery and style make them engaging and relatable to any audience, be it a college, club, or corporate event.
Will has released 2 albums, performs in clubs and venues all across the midwest and has garnered attention at various festivals – including Gilda’s Laughfest, Whiskey Bear and the Maine and Milwaukee Comedy Festivals. Having headlined his first club weekend in 2019, Will is a rising star in the Midwest comedy scene.
