In 1936 a marvelous opera house was built on the site of an old deer run in the forest above the village of Harrison. Constructed of rose hemlock in the Adirondack Style with hand carved fixtures and near perfect acoustics, the 300 seat theatre was considered as fine as any on Broadway Now listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, Deertrees is operated as a non-profit performing arts center and presents an eclectic offering of over fifty productions; from cutting edge standup comedy to Downeast humor, from Broadway Plays to New Orleans Jazz -during a season that runs from late June until early September
