Life in the Theater
Written by James MacKillop
Joe Lotito takes his final curtain call as the force behind Salt City Center for the Performing Arts.
At the end, his courage was screwed tightly to the sticking place, and his colors were still flying. Joe Lotito (always “Joseph N. Lotito” in the program) died Oct. 25, just as his beleaguered company, Salt City Center for the Performing Arts—homeless since the June 2004 closing of its beloved Salt City Playhouse on the corner of South Crouse Avenue and Harrison Street—was mounting a revival of Alfred Uhry’s Driving Miss Daisy. It was in yet another new venue, the Paul Robeson Performing Arts Center on East Genesee Street. His passing closed the show in mid-run.
