A New Theater in Downtown Pottstown. A loan to Village Productions now known as Steel River Playhouse paid off the construction loan for a new theater facility in Pottstown, PA., which opened in December 2008. The nonprofit playhouse is a black box theater with two world-renowned artists as honorary co-chairs—singer and songwriter Daryl Hall of Hall & Oates, and Romero Britto, a contemporary Miami painter and sculptor.
