Concerts, theatrical productions, dance presentations, lectures, and large meetings are equally well served by this theatre, which has been declared an historic building and is, therefore, amusement-tax-exempt.

The downstairs seating capacity is 1,271 with seating for an additional 409 persons upstairs. Our fully rigged stage boasts a magnificent fifty foot proscenium, a hydraulic orchestra pit, and a recently installed complete state-of-the-art sound and lighting system.
