Cider Mill Playhouse

The Cider Mill Playhouse in Endicott, New York, was a professional theatre that produced comedies, dramas, and musicals.

In the early 1970s, Binghamton University professor Dr. John Bielenberg began searching for a location for theater students to practice off-campus.

Dr. Bielenberg and his colleagues found The Cider Mill, an apple warehouse on South Nanticoke Avenue in the village of Endicott.
