City project underway to help revitalize Victory Theatre in Holyoke
A major project is underway in the city of Holyoke, in an effort to revitalize the Victory Theatre, and restore it to its former glory. The 1,600-seat theatre dates back to the 1920s and has been closed since 1979. The Massachusetts International Festival of the Arts, or “MIFA,” acquired the theatre in 2009 in hopes of completely restoring and becoming a major theatre in western Massachusetts.
