THE BUILDING’S HISTORY
Constructed in 1908 as the first addition to the primary footprint of the building, the auditorium is a showpiece of the craftsmanship of the day. The seating is arranged in a traditional two-level design. The main floor offers a flexible seating option while the balcony provides additional seating for a total accommodation of up to 1,000. The stained glass work is unparalleled, with the fifteen-foot diameter domed “sunlight” showcasing the blending of style and elegance.
The stage contains a total of 102 scene “flats” that were hand-painted in the early 1900s and shipped by railcar to the facility and installed…and are still all in working order. They provide a variety of backgrounds that prove to provide a custom feel to any performance or presentation. There is also a fully operational pipe organ, sound system, and stage lighting.
