Carpenter Theatre
Proscenium arch
Fully renovated and restored, the historic Carpenter Theatre is the cornerstone of the
performing arts complex. It features state-of-the-art lighting and world-class acoustics
while still preserving its Old World feel. Its large stage, great acoustics and 20 dressing
rooms make it a performer’s dream venue. Carpenter Theatre’s main lobby
includes two refreshment bars, concierge station and a gift shop, with two additional
refreshment bars upstairs. Four large mosaic tile murals of parrots serve as the backdrop
to the four refreshment bars and are a tribute to the handmade parrot that has been perched
in the lobby since the theater first opened in 1928. Upon entering the refurbished
Carpenter Theatre - with nearly 1,800 seats - audiences enjoy newly installed fiber optic
stars twinkling overhead in the repainted midnight sky ceiling, one of the many preserved
and enhanced elements of John Eberson's original theater design.
