Editorial Review for Orpheum Theatre - Memphis – by Linda Romine
The Scene
This ornate performance palace was once a vaudeville venue. The building was built in 1928; in the late 1990s, it was restored to the condition of its gilded glory days.
The Best
The stellar lineup of artists who have performed here over the past century includes John Philip Sousa, Burns and Allen, Tom Petty and Stomp. Today the Orpheum presents Broadway touring shows and presentations by two local performing arts groups, the Ballet Memphis and Opera Memphis.
The Rest
In the summertime, the Orpheum reverts to a movie theater, with big-screen showings of perennial classics like "Gone With the Wind," "Singin' in the Rain" and "The Sound of Music."
