It's rare for the Desert Star Playhouse, a place usually filled with music, acting and laughter, to be closed.Michael Todd, the president and owner of Desert Star Playhouse in Murray, was in his office in the Desert Star building Friday night when the sound of a fire alarm pierced his ears. In the moments following, he and about 250 guests and additional employees were evacuated as the fire department arrived.
Todd says the water damage is extensive, damaging the historic wooden floors where audience chairs sit and the ceiling above. Saturday morning, Todd and the clean-up crews were on scene evaluating the extent of the damage. It’s rare for the Desert Star, a place usually filled with music, acting, and laughter, to be closed. Todd says the closure reminds him of what happened during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Despite the fire and damage, Todd is hopeful the theater will be filled with performers and guests soon.
