Orpheum Theatre Tickets

Situated in downtown Omaha, Nebraska, the Orpheum Theater is one of the biggest draws for visitors to the city. One of Omaha’s oldest performing arts centers, having been around since 1927, the venue is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Engage, inspire, connect – that has been the mission of Orpheum Theater since the Omaha Performing Arts Society assumed management in 2002. However, the establishment has been a cornerstone in the city for much longer, delivering a tantalizing buffet of entertainment since 1927.

Despite changing hands multiple times, the venue has always managed to weather the storm. Originally, it delighted crowds with vaudeville acts – a curious mix of magicians, plate spinners, ventriloquists, and other fringe entertainment. When that fell out of fashion, it transformed into a downtown movie theater showing popular flicks from the 1940s to 1970s.

Nowadays, Orpheum Theater hosts everything from musical concerts to comedy shows in the 2,600-seat Slosburg Hall. This unique space embodies French Renaissance influences, including gilded furniture, ornate woodwork, and dramatic chandeliers.
