sheldon theatre of performing arts

The theater was so beautiful it made me catch my breath. My seat was in the third row, but I think you could feel that you had a very intimate theater experience no matter where in the house your seat was.Everyone was friendly and welcoming, from ticket sellers to ushers, to the theater manager. They helped make the evening unforgettable.

This theatre is so beautiful! If has the old red velvet chairs and painting on the walls and ceiling. When you see a performance here you special. Do take a tour and see the everything or walk round before or after the performance.

We have been here a number of times. This time we saw Joseph & his Amazing Technicolor Dream coat. The theater is truly gorgeous. While the production was excellent, just seeing the theater is worth your trouble.

We visited during "off season" for the theatre but was able to walk through and admire the fine workmanship of this grand old building. A brochure was available to read some history of the Sheldon Theatre. I would like to visit sometime when they were having an event there! Close to downtown and free to enter.

Do take a tour of this delightful old building, or if you are in town when a show is on do go. The building itself is so worth a visit, full of history and charm.

Thank you, we are happy you found us too!

Beautiful restored theater in heart of downtown Red Wing! Saw Paula Poundstone there last night - tickets were cheaper than going to see her in Minneapolis and we were in the second row because there were more tickets available. Seats from second row were good - didn't have to crane neck looking up. Can't comment on seats in the balcony, although she conversed with people up there during the show, so they can't be too far back! Ushers were very sweet. Refreshments were also pretty cheap compared to theaters in the cities! An enjoyable evening.

Thank you Donna! We are so glad you enjoyed your time at the Sheldon Theatre. And we agree, the Red Wing High School student put on a great musical every year.
