Hello again, I've read this article through and feel now is as good a time as any to start reviewing it. I did a quick copyedit of the article just beforehand but will bring up the few things that were unclear in the prose here and then start on the rest of the review.

Lead

There is a mention of actors dealing with limited space in the lead, but the article doesn't specifically address concerns of this limitation, only the numerous renovations over the years.

No citations - okay per MOS:LEADCITE. Y

Other prose notes

1990s: Before the 1996 season began, Wayside hosted four performances of Always Patsy Cline at John Handley High School, since Wayside's stage was too small for the event. It was the first and only time Wayside acted as hosts of another company's show. This should clarify that Always Patsy Cline wasn't a Wayside production; it's unclear that it was a national/off-broadway production from the information provided.

Some potential copyright violations were identified but are dismissed as they are all pointing towards lengthy quotations. Will keep a look out for close paraphrasing.
allaboutwayside.com is a self-published source, but works well to supplement the information that is there and has been verified by secondary sources as coming from what could be described as an expert in the field.
