48-Orpheum Theatre Part 1

August 05, 2022 • Wichita Podcast • Season 1 • Episode 48

We sat down with Stacee Olden, Development Director for the Wichita Orpheum Theatre, and Delmar Klocke, Board Member and resident Orpheum Historian to hear about the history of the Wichita Orpheum. The Orpheum hits its 100 year anniversary on September 4th, and so we thought it would be the perfect subject to explore the ups and downs of the theatre for the last 100 years. It was the first atmospheric theatre in the United States and you can still see and hear the amazing sounds that come from this Spanish courtyard inspired theatre.

So sit back, enjoy the history of the Orpheum, and gear up to go check out some fun content the rest of this year there!
