This amphitheater is located in Shannon Springs Park. The park dates back to the early 1900s, but in the mid-1930s, the WPA constructed many things in the park, including this lovely amphitheater.
The seats are constructed of native sandstone, in two sections, with a center and outside aisles. The semi-circular stage area is also made of stone.
The amphitheater is still actively in use today, and can be rented for an event by contacting the City of Chickasha. It is used for concerts, and also an Easter morning celebration service.
