Student Contributions to Article[edit]

I'm a student in West Chester University's Spring 2017 course History on the Web. For an assignment, I am making improvements to this article. My edits include some minor wording changes to the history section (changes from passive voice to active), some factual changes like the audience venue number, and I replaced some of the sources with better ones. I also added some sections on facility, the culture surrounding the street and the venue, and a section on the TLA entertainment group. Additionally, I added some notable sections about the TLA group relating to the venue such as TLA film controversy with them premiering the film, Hail Mary (film). I also included a section about the film Pink Flamingos because the TLA was one of the first theaters to premier this film, which helped launch John Waters' career.

Confusing section[edit]

"In 1978, the American Theater Arts for Youth used the venue[8] for several productions including: Babes in Toyland, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Wizard of Oz. It left the venue in 1982 to seek a bigger audience. By November 1980, the theatre was once again in financial trouble. The theatre folded once again in 1981."

In this part of the history section, the timeline is very confusing. The theatre group left the venue in 1982 but the theatre closed in 1981? I'm assuming it could be a typo but I'm not sure because I can't find a source to backup this information. If anyone can find a source that can verify this timeline that'd be great.
