Sioux City Orpheum is a historic theatre opened in 1927 and one of Sioux City's distinctive performing arts venues. Designed by the renowned Chicago architectural firm Rapp & Rapp, the auditorium today accommodates approximately 2,500 guests. Its restored interior preserves the character of a grand former vaudeville palace, with elaborate decorative details, gilded ornamentation, crystal chandeliers, painted ceilings and a traditionally framed stage.
The main floor and balcony create a classic theatre layout suited to concerts, theatrical productions, musicals, comedy and orchestral performances. The proscenium stage, modern sound system and multi-level auditorium provide a focused live-performance experience from different areas of the venue. Light snacks and beverages are available during events, while accessible seating, an elevator and assisted-listening devices add practical comfort for visitors.
The theatre is located at 528 Pierce St, Sioux City, United States. The Martin Luther King Jr. Transportation Parking Garage is immediately east of the venue, with access from 6th Street; from level S, visitors can follow the signs through the Skywalk toward the theatre.
