Bridgeport’s outdoor theater project, sponsored by Dr. Louis Smirnow, will not be built this season. Chamber of Commerce outdoor theatre committee members cited heavy city debt and a lack of market for municipal bonds as reasons not to seek funding. They estimated costs between 40000 and 30000 for construction and about 5000 for seating and stage equipment, and agreed it was impractical to pursue a fiscal bid or public subscription at present.
