Princess Theater

The historic Princess Theater at 101 W. Monroe Street in Mt. Ayr, Iowa reopened on Aug. 21 after spending years as a bar and storage space for plumbing supplies. Opening night featured old time events and the live production of Farmer’s Song-The Musical, written by Angie Hynek and her son Joe Hyneck. Set during the farm crisis of the 1980s, the musical revolves around a farm family living in small town Ellston, Iowa who come up with a creative way to make a living off their land.
