Take a tour of one of the oldest continually operating theaters in the country. You will be guided through the building and discover interesting facts about the Music Hall’s 149-year history and the theater’s role in the community not only for entertainment, but as a multi-purpose gathering place. Discover how the Music Hall was impacted by other theaters in the area as well as the onset of film and television. Get a behind-the- scenes look at the 1901 rigging system still used backstage today. Note that climbing stairs will be involved in parts of the tour. If you wish not to climb stairs, you can view the stage discussion from the seats in the theatre. For more information, follow this link: www.themusichall.org
