Orpheum Theatre

Don't be fooled by the front of the building, this venue is huge inside. Really cool architecture too. I'd recommend seats closer to the front of the balcony or on the main level. The play I saw was phenomenal! They also have snacks and beverages available for sale. There is a parking garage across the street that is affordable and secure making it easy to get to the theater.

Beautiful, clean, safe venue with lots of parking options around it. There isn't really a bad seat in the house. The only down side is their lack of bathrooms. During intermission the lines went out the door & down the staircase to other floors. You better go before you go

We went to the Orpheum Theater to see a stand up comedy show and had a great experience overall. The venue is large with a lot of character, and the sound and view from the seats were good. There are multiple concession stands on different floors, which makes it easy to grab drinks or snacks. Bathrooms are on each floor, but avoid the main floor bathrooms since the lines get very long. Use the ones on the other levels instead. One tip is to skip the prepaid parking. The QR code for our prepaid pass did not scan properly, and it was actually cheaper to just pay for parking the day of the show. Overall, the Orpheum is a beautiful theater with plenty of amenities. Keeping these tips in mind will make your visit smoother.

Three of us visited the Orpheum for a Jimmy Carr show. We walked up to the entrance and noticed the line was more than a block long. Someone told us to check for another line running the opposite way, which we did. It saved us 20 minutes or so in line. We used the time savings to hit the small bar inside. The lady was mixing six different drinks in order to keep the line moving quickly. In the time it took us to pay she had three drinks made and we went upstairs to our seats. The view was excellent and the audio was very clear. The seats themselves were comfortable, but the legroom was very small... The Orpheum itself was beautiful! The staff was pleasant and we'll definitely visit again in the future. Excellent experience!

What a beautiful theater! From entering the building to finding our seats, I was consistently impressed with the beautiful decor, friendly staff members, and amenities. They've truly done a wonderful job bringing a sense of wonder and excitement before seeing a production. Unfortunately, the seating isn't very comfortable. The last renovation seems to have added new seats but taken away some of the leg room and size of chairs. We felt cramped while enjoying Beauty and the Beast, and that's something I wish could be adjusted or considered moving forward. For the amount of money the audience pays to get into the theater, some consideration of our comfort would be appreciated. Otherwise, this is one of the absolute finest theaters we have in the Twin Cities. An easy 5-star for better, spacious seats.

It was so pretty. I saw beauty and the beast and it was an amazing live performance but I would be cautious going here because there’s a lot of lights and if you have light sensitivity like I do you might wanna be aware that it’s not light sensitivity friendly but otherwise I loved being here. The bathrooms were pretty long between intermissions so I would recommend going 10 minutes before it.

We are incredibly lucky in the Twin Cities to have the beautiful Orpheum Theater here. It is just as wonderful, if not more, as a New York Broadway Theater. We have been here many times and it's always a delightful experience. Pretty much any seat is a great seat here. Acoustics are fantastic as well! Go early and go to Crave across the street (make reservations). On Lasalle Avenue, park in the parking ramp and then take the skyway over to Crave. After your meal, take the escalator downstairs. Walk across the street to the Orpheum... it's the best little trick in town (shhhh!).

Attended The Phantom of the Opera and it was amazing. They do a wonderful job of traffic flow in and out. The only thing that would be nice is more bathrooms but the building is over a hundred years old.
