A beautifully restored historic theater on State Street hosting concerts, comedy shows, and special events with ornate decor and excellent sightlines from nearly every seat. The venue impresses with attentive staff and accessible service, but expect long bathroom lines and security delays (bag checks and metal detectors) that require arriving early.
