Theaters Minneapolis

The Orpheum is the favorite theater of Minneapolis residents! From the outside, we are charmed by its pretty lighted facade. It opened in 1921 as the Hennepin Theatre, and was owned by Bob Dylan between 1979 and 1988. Restored in the 1990s, like three other theaters on the avenue, the Orpheum Theatre has been restored to its original elegance and now hosts Broadway blockbusters. The Lion King, The Phantom of the Opera and Mamma Mia! were among the hit shows that were performed there.
