The Pabst Theater

The Pabst Theater was built in the late 1800’s by brewing magnate Captain Frederick Pabst. Designed by architect Otto Strack in the tradition of the great European opera houses, its opulent Baroque interior includes an Austrian crystal chandelier, a staircase crafted from white Italian Carrara marble, and a proscenium arch — highlighted in gold leaf — framing the stage. 

Today, The Pabst Theater is the centerpiece of Milwaukee’s downtown theater district...a magnificent example of architecture of another time and era that serves performers and audiences of the 21st century as it did at the turn of the 20th century.

The Riverside Theater

Named for its location along the Milwaukee River, The Riverside is one of the most opulent of Milwaukee’s theaters, welcoming high caliber artists, orchestral performances and quality entertainment of all types.

The largest rental space available, the Riverside Theater provides an elegant backdrop reflective of the French baroque style it boasted as a presentation house for vaudeville and film in the late 1920's.  Host a company meeting on the same stage that once hosted Neil Young, or a private dinner backstage where Aretha Franklin stood before a show.
