The Twin Cities theater, The Southern Theater, will have to close if they cannot raise $400,000 by April 30th, The Star Tribune said. The theater is historic to Minneapolis. They released a statement on their webpage that described their financial situation as an emergency and a crisis. Around $90,000 is needed to pay off vendors alone, KARE 11 said. Their financial troubles started weeks ago when nearly a third of its board members resigned. They lost support from the McKnight Foundation. The theater's deficit goes back years.
