TUCKER, Ga. — Londzell’s Performing Arts Theater is set to open in Tucker, with its inaugural show on New Year’s Eve featuring the legendary band Con Funk Shun.
The new venue is the brainchild of Londzell Hardy, who envisioned a space for the community to enjoy high-quality entertainment.
The theater boasts VIP seating, flat screens, fireplaces, a skybox, ballrooms, and recording studios, offering a comprehensive experience for guests.
“I went to Chastain Park... I’m looking at all these people... then it just clicked,” Londzell Hardy, owner of the theater, told Channel 2’s Lori Wilson while reflecting on his inspiration for creating the venue.
