Historic Tour of the Orpheum Theatre

The Orpheum Theatre is opening its doors for a Historic Tour on Tuesday, October 20, at 12 PM. It's a guided walk through the restored 1929 theatre, and the best part is that it's free.

If you've spent any time downtown, you know the Orpheum. It opened in 1929, and it's since been restored to its original state. Most of the time, you only see it from the seats, watching a show from the house. This tour changes that. You'll get a guided look at the building's history and architecture, and you'll get behind-the-scenes access to the parts of the theatre that usually stay closed to the public.

It's a good chance to see the Orpheum from the inside out. You'll get to see the restored details of the 1929 interior and hear about the theatre's history, all while walking through the spaces that make it work. If you've ever wondered what's happening behind the curtain or how the building is put together, this is your shot to see it for yourself.

The tour is on Tuesday, October 20, starting at 12 PM at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Phoenix. It's free.
