Historic Orpheum Theatre
The Historic Orpheum Theatre opened its doors in 1921 as a vaudeville and live presentation venue, with a capacity for 2,600 patrons. Vaudeville was king of the national touring entertainment circuit, and to accommodate these acts the Orpheum was equipped with an elevator exclusively for large animals. Through the years the Orpheum Theatre has been host to Big Bands, movie premiers, dance troupes, and touring Broadway productions.
