WYO Theater
Built in the heyday of Vaudeville Theater, the WYO Theater in Sheridan was in use for 60 years until it closed in 1982. It was saved from the wrecking ball in the late 1980's and since then it has been beautifully restored to its former glory. Now the WYO Theater is one of the main entertainment venues in this small Northern Plains city.
