SOPAC evolved from an idea of then Village of South Orange President Bill Calabrese to bring a movie theater to town. After further discussions and exploration, he championed a bigger dream – to establish and open a full performing arts center. The center would present elite artists in an intimate theater and feature cinema and event space. It would create jobs, offer arts education and spur new partnerships. Finally it would anchor the downtown business district, become a community gathering point and a regional point of arts pride.
