Orpheum Theatre

The Orpheum Theatre is a historic landmark in the heart of the Hennepin Theatre District in downtown Minneapolis. Opened in 1921 as a grand vaudeville house, the venue is celebrated for its opulent Beaux-Arts architecture, featuring a stunning chandelier and an intricate aluminum-leaf dome. Once owned by Bob Dylan, this meticulously restored space offers a sophisticated and warm atmosphere that reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Twin Cities. While it is a premier destination for Broadway tours, the Orpheum is also a top-tier comedy venue. Its history of legendary performances dates back to the Marx Brothers and Jack Benny. Today, the theater continues to host the industry's biggest stars, including Jerry Seinfeld, Steve Martin, and Martin Short. For comedy fans, the Orpheum provides an elegant setting to catch world-class talent in one of the Midwest's most iconic and storied rooms.
