Post Street Theatre
Venue Location and Information
About This Venue
This beautifully restored theatre first opened in 1982 and was home to many hit shows. In keeping with the quality productions presented in years gone by, it is the mission of Post Street Theatre to present a diverse array of high caliber, smaller scale Off-Broadway and avant-garde theatrical attractions.
The building located at 450 Post Street was built in 1924 by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks in order to accommodate a burgeoning membership. It is of Spanish-Gothic design and originally contained 100 hotel rooms (now the Kensington Park Hotel). The building remained the home of the Elks until 1981, when it was leased to various partners, creating a hotel, shops, and other spaces. At that time the second floor Lodge hall became Theatre on the Square, and was redesigned by architect Gene Angell. The flat-floored assembly hall was transformed into the 729-seat theatre as you see it today. |
