Lancaster Grand Theatre - Lancaster, Kentucky

We have the basics: popcorn, drinks, snacks, and a few things to make your visit to The Grand a little more enjoyable.

But what we really enjoy is serving you.

Some of our favorite moments behind this counter aren't about what we've sold—they're about the conversations we've shared. The stories you tell us about coming to The Grand years ago. The memories you made here with parents, grandparents, children, friends... and the memories you're making today.

And yes, we had to have popcorn.

Because sometimes the smell of freshly popped popcorn can take you right back to a place, a person, or a moment you haven't thought about in years.

So when you visit The Grand, stop by and say hello.

You never know what memory might be waiting for you.

**Traci Vaught**

Raised in Mercer County and a proud resident of Garrard County since 1987, Traci Vaught retired in April 2025 after a remarkable 39-year career in Administration with the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Family is at the heart of Traci's life. She is the proud mother of Tucker, who lives in Paint Lick, and Emily, who resides in Houston, Texas. Her greatest joy comes from spending time with her two grandchildren, Carter and Jack. Whether she's traveling to Texas to visit family, cheering on her granddaughter at soccer games and theater performances, tending to her yard, or enjoying a quiet afternoon crocheting, Traci treasures every opportunity to make memories with those she loves.

As a volunteer at The Grand Theatre, Traci has found another place that feels like home. She enjoys welcoming patrons, experiencing the wide variety of performances, and having the opportunity to meet both visitors and performers. For her, The Grand is more than a historic theater—it's a place where community comes together through the arts.

Traci is grateful that Lancaster is home to such a special place and is proud to play a small part in helping preserve this unexpected treasure for future generations.

Grand Tier 1

Some people choose a seat close to the stage.

Others discover that a few extra steps reveal an entirely different experience.

From Grand Tier 1, the performance becomes more than what happens under the spotlight. You watch the audience laugh together, see the lighting sweep across the stage, admire the beauty of the theatre's architecture, and enjoy a perspective that few first-time guests expect.

It's almost like watching a show within a show. From this seat, you don't just see the stage.

You see The Grand.

The climb? You'll forget about it before the lights dim.

The view? You'll remember it long after the final curtain.

From these Walls, Grand Tier 1 reminds us that sometimes the best experiences aren't found by getting closer... they're found by seeing more. The view may be higher, but so is the appreciation for everything that makes The Grand an Unexpected Treasure. Come get a new perspective at The Little Theatre Right in the Middle of Everywhere.
