t the time of the Wortham Center’s grand opening in 2019, several upgrades and maintenance projects had yet to be completed due to continuous activity at the center. One silver lining in an otherwise troubling year, the pause of events from the pandemic lockdown allowed staff to focus on some of these projects.

The Green Room is a private space backstage used by performers to warm up, eat, hold pre-show meetings and/or rest. After 20-plus years of wear and tear from thousands of artists, the Diana Wortham Theatre Green Room (now the John Ellis Green Room, named after our former director who retired in 2017) is being updated with new flooring, a fresh coat of paint, upgraded cabinets and a viewing system for the artists to watch the action on stage when they are not performing. Funding for this project was provided by John Cram / Blue Spiral 1 and Lowe’s.
