Orpheum Theater (Omaha)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Orpheum Theater is a local and national performing arts center located in downtown Omaha, Nebraska. The Orpheum hosts programs best served by a more theatrical setting, including the "Broadway In Omaha" series and Opera Omaha.
The 2,600-seat proscenium theater was originally built in 1927 as a vaudeville house. The Orpheum underwent a $10 million renovation in 2002. In 2004, the Orpheum Theater Skylink was added for increased convenience and accessibility to the Orpheum. The 200-foot-long elevated, enclosed and climate-controlled walkway connects the OPPD parking garage to the Orpheum Theater.
