When Seth and Nate Vaill purchased the Rialto Theatre property in 2010, the building was essentially an empty shell. Today, the theater is completely transformed into a complex with two stages for local, national and international artists, two bars, a recording studio and a kitchen. “We have had so many great songwriters, poets, musicians and theater productions in the Rialto Theatre,” says Seth via an email. Celebrate the restored theater’s 10-year anniversary with concerts from nearly 50 artists in May. Hear Akron acts Zach & the Bright Lights May 2, Angie Haze May 22 and 23, Fancy Legs and Big Pop May 17 and more. “We want to continue to be a place that artists want to come play and music lovers want to come listen,” says Seth.
