Orpheum Theatre Information

Orpheum Theatre - Concert Venue | Theater in Los Angeles.

In a young city like Los Angeles, a building over eighty years old is practically a legendary institution. Downtown L.A. venue the Orpheum Theatre has been around since 1926, when it operated as a vaudeville house. Luminaries such as Judy Garland, Ella Fitzgerald, and Stevie Wonder played its stage, and the venue has weathered changes in the music industry, moving from vaudeville to jazz to rock and back again. These days, the Orpheum presents concerts, film festivals, award shows, and television shows, including an episode of American Idol.

The Orpheum Theatre’s classic auditorium, complete with loge, balcony, and boxes, can seat 2,000, and the restored lobby, lounge, mezzanine, and several bars provide elegant gathering spaces both during performances and for private events. Historical details and a close attention to luxurious preservation make the theater a character-filled yet comfortable space to watch a performance. The wide range of performances at the Orpheum Theatre includes family-friendly fare like Christmas plays to indie darlings like M. Ward. A few shows are general admission, but most have assigned tickets. The Orpheum Theatre has plentiful parking.

Ashley Leonard Mar 16, 2013 3.0 stars A Historical Gem Don't be fooled by the humble exterior. The Orpheum interior is an architectural beauty! I went to The Orpheum for the first time in 2011 for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Hit Record Fall Formal. Parking was extremely simple, as there was a pay lot right across the street, so the trek in heels was not very far at all. Upon walking inside, I was met with gorgeous Art Deco architecture in the main lobby. It was like stepping back in time to the golden age of silent films and vaudeville. As I made my way inside, I stumbled upon a bar down a small flight of stairs. It was a very basic bar, serving bottled beer and simple well drinks. I am sure the bar changes depending on who is sponsoring the event, but I paid $6.00 for a rum and coke served in a small plastic cup. The basic nature of the bar and the price of my drink are the only qualms I have about the theater. Once the doors opened, my party and I went to our seats in the orchestra level. I was in awe at the continuing Art Deco interior and light fixtures. Every aspect of the theaters history was well preserved. Aside from the vintage vibe of the theater, the show was fantastic, and I ended up sitting a few rows back from Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, and Neil Patrick Harris. After the show, my party and I were a bit on the hungry side. Luckily, there was a small taco stand located next to The Oprheum, and our late night cravings were satisfied! If you ever get the opportunity to attend an event at The Orpheum, you won't be disappointed in the venue!
Jessica Juarez Sep 26, 2012 4.0 stars Wonderful place =^.^= Walking into the Orpheum Theater in Los Angeles, California, is like walking into a time machine back to the era of great old Hollywood actors and actress. Interior design from floor to Ceiling is stunning, from the beautifully designed stair case to hall ways and chandeliers hanging to the grand theater room. How can I forget the cigarette girls? My experience at the Orpheum Theater may be very different then many people, since I was the hired crew, I worked for an events company that was hired by different venues to help clear aisles and take tickets. The Orpheum was one of my favorite venues to work at, especially during the nights of the silent films. The guests were always so polite and there’s even a chance you may see hue hefner and his lovely dolls. If you’re ever in the Los Angeles area and want to do something different or special with your significant other make sure to visit the Orpheum Theater on the silent film night you will not be disappointed.
