"A perfect event to start out a season of fantasy and legend."
Twin Cities Daily Planet
The Orpheum Theatre (originally the Hennepin Theatre) first opened its doors in Minneapolis in 1921. The legendary Marx Brothers were the first to perform at the venue that was billed as the largest vaudeville house in the country. Other legendary entertainers have performed there as well, including Fanny Brice, George Burns, and Jack Benny. The Orpheum later became a major cinema house, and one of the first to premiere films such as Gone with the Wind and From Here to Eternity. It has hosted big bands, including Count Basie and Tommy Dorsey, and productions of the Broadway hits My Fair Lady, Fiddler on the Roof, Miss Saigon, and Victor/Victoria. In addition to Moscow Ballet’s incredible, critically acclaimed Great Russian Nutcracker, upcoming stage productions to be featured include Les Miserables and The Lion King. Experience the history and grandeur of the historic Orpheum Theatre… it’s where Minneapolis celebrates the holiday season!
