It’s a very happy birthday for an iconic theatre that’s been around for nearly 100 years.
Fox Tucson Theatre is turning 91 years old and to celebrate they’re hosting a “drive-by” event with some help from Café a la C’art on Sunday, April 11.
The event is free to the public from 10 a.m. – noon, and to help make the occasion even sweeter and tastier, Café a la C’art will be providing the birthday cake treats.
In addition, there’s going to be free goodie bags stuffed with offers and Fox Tucson Theatre swag to the first 100 guests that drive on by the historic venue. Also, to make the event fun for the entire family, KIT the Fox will be making an appearance.
If you can’t make out to sing “Happy Birthday” at the top of your lungs in person, you can always send the theatre a birthday gift online.
“Help us mark this special milestone, get through these hard times, and return to the stage where we belong.”
Fox Tucson Theatre is located at 17 W. Congress St. For more information, visit foxtucson.com.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
