It's a possibility if the ACM@UCO is extremely successful.
But I think we are much closer to being a "theatre" city. OCU's status as a magnet for talent in theatre, dance, and musical theatre (both students and faculty) means that we have a great community and professional theatre scene. It even trickles down to the high schools. Edmond North, Edmond Memorial, PC North, and others have phenomenal theatre programs. In the last year, we have seen three new theatre groups form, and that's without losing any of the old ones.
Ghostlight Theatre Club (at a.k.a gallery in Paseo) produces alternative, experiemental, and avant-garde productions like
World of Mirth and Neal LaBute's
The Shape of Things.

On any given weekend, there are at least 3 or 4 shows playing in the metro between the professional and community theatres and the colleges.
