  • Report 12.30.10
    ! ! ! ! ! memorandum report to: Eileen Cabanel, City of Laconia from: Webb Management Services regarding: Colonial Theatre Needs Assessment date: December 31, 2010 Webb Management Services is a management consulting practice for the development and operation of cultural facilities. We have been hired by the City of Laconia to assess the feasibility of revitalizing the Colonial Theatre, located on Main Street in downtown Laconia. To complete our work, we considered the market for cultural events, existing local and regional arts and event facilities, potential uses and users, and community goals, benefits and impacts. We met with nearly 150 members of the community, including representatives of local arts organizations, promoters, educational institutions, downtown businesses, constituents, and elected officials. We also toured existing local arts, educational and cultural facilities, and then conducted research on comparable projects searching for precedents and other information that might inform the study. 1. Study Context 1.1 The Colonial Theatre The Colonial Theatre originally opened its doors in 1914. Once the center of activity for the downtown, the Theatre operated as 1,250-seat venue and presented films, musical performances and vaudeville shows. In addition to the auditorium, the property includes four commercial storefront spaces and 18 apartments that are rented as affordable housing. Long-time Laconia residents reminisce about performing dance recitals on the stage, seeing beloved films for the first time in the theatre, or even having their first kiss in the balcony. The current property owner, Patricia Baldi, purchased the property in the 1962 with her husband, Lawrence Baldi. Mr. and Mrs. Baldi operated the Colonial Theatre as a movie theater, presenting films until 2001.

The area provides a unique mix of family-owned restaurants, historical landmarks and museums, local artisans, and, most prominently, a variety of outdoor activities that allow residents to appreciate the beautiful introduction outdoors all year round. Some notable trails that avid hikers and bikers in the state enjoy are the Cotton Valley Rail-Trail in Wolfeboro, Gunstock Mountain Trail in Gilford, Mount Major in Alton, the WOW Trail in Laconia and Highland Mountain Bike Park in Tilton. Gunstock Mountain also offers skiing, snowshoeing and tubing in the winter. Other winter activities popular in the Lakes Region include snowmobiling and ice fishing. The region offers countless snowmobile clubs that allow residents to take consistent rides with a group of their friends. As for ice fishing — the Lakes Region has many contests that allow kids and adults to test their skills for a chance to win prizes. Many attractions in the area also exemplify residents’ love for the outdoors. There are a plethora of farms, orchards and sap houses in the region that produce fresh products that can be picked up on the spot as well as supply many of the nearby restaurants. Locals also love to enjoy arts and crafts that are made locally, which are often inspired by the wildlife that is observed in the area at the gardens, sanctuaries and local parks.
