Sweetwater Branch Inn is proud to support its local community and invites you to visit our local theatre: The Hippodrome State Theatre.
Housed in the historic Federal Building, at walking distance from our Inn, The Hippodrome has produced more than one hundred world, American and Southeastern premieres in its 25 year history. Acclaimed playwrights such as Tennessee Williams, Eric Bentley, Paula Vogel, Lee Breuer, Adrian Mitchell and Mario Vargas Llosa have developed new works on the Hippodrome stage.
In addition to its mainstage season, the Hippodrome screens first-run foreign, limited-release and avant-garde films.
