Saw MMJ there a few years back and this theatre quickly became my favorite in Minneapolis. The acoustics were great and the staff was really friendly.

Mr. Shatner was really really funny; relevant and seeming nowhere near his 80 years. The Orpheum is a wonderful venue and one that I felt at-home in, despite using a cane and moving slowly. Staff is excellent. It was a memorable evening.

I've been here for a number of concerts ranging from Lewis Black to Anita Baker. I love the place, the seating and the acoustics. I love not having to see people I love in an arena with a Jumbotron. Here is a venue for performers who can actually connect directly with their audience and the prices are fair... especially when... More

Love this theatre! The decor is nicely done in an understated sumptuous manner. Not a bad seat on the floor level. I have never sat in the balcony, but my husband did recently (upper balcony) and really appreciates the floor seats! Great traveling Broadway productions. I have not seen a concert here, but am sure it is a great venue... More

The variety of shows available each season is tremendous. Women, make sure you use the bathroom before you come and skip the intermission drink! The lines are very long and there are few stalls available.

There is NOT a bad seat in the house. It's a fabulously restored old theatre in Minneapolis. Best place to see anything!
