The Signal Mountain Playhouse was established in 1972 to provide the youth in the community with a summer activity. The July production is now a full-scale musical involving adults, teenagers, and children ages seven and up. Performances take place in a natural outdoor amphitheater behind the Town Complex at the corner of James Boulevard and Rolling Way. Over the years, seating, a band shell, lighting, sound equipment and storage buildings have been added to support the productions. Summer presentations have included plays such as “Oklahoma,” “South Pacific,” “Annie Get Your Gun,” “Peter Pan,” “The Wizard of Oz,” and “Oliver.”
