On this one-hour tour, you will have the chance to step behind the scenes and into the historic 2,800-seat Benedum Center.
The Benedum was originally designed and operated to be a silent movie palace called the Stanley Theatre. It was complete in 1928 at the then-astounding cost of $3 million. In the 1970s, the Stanley was used primarily for rock concerts. The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust later acquired the theater and renovated it with the financial assistance of various entities including the Benedum Foundation.
From the iconic crystal chandeliers to the expansive stage (one of the largest in the country), the Benedum Center is filled with unique features and fascinating stories that you will have the opportunity to experience on a new level.
