Own a piece of Golden Isles history ✨

Before SoGlo, these seats belonged to Island Players prior to reconstruction of the Casino Theater on St. Simons Island. For years, these 112 seats held every audience that walked through those doors, every opening night, every kid’s first play, every standing ovation.

We’re bringing in a new set, and these originals need a new home!

$100 per individual seat, or grab a full row of 8 for $600 ($75/seat). You take them apart, you haul them off, they’re yours.

This is perfect for building a home theater, dressing up a studio, or just want a conversation piece with real history behind it, this is your opportunity!

Pickup starts Monday, August 17th. Call 912.217.7035 to schedule your pickup.
