Calumet Theatre, Opera house in Calumet, US.
The Renaissance Revival structure features yellow-brown brick walls, copper cornices, and stands on Jacobsville sandstone foundation in downtown Calumet, Michigan.
Opening on March 20, 1900, the Calumet Theatre became the first municipal theatre in the United States, during the region's copper mining industry peak.
The theatre stage welcomed performers Frank Morgan, Douglas Fairbanks Sr, Lon Chaney Sr, John Philip Sousa, Sarah Bernhardt, and Madame Helena Modjeska.
The box office operates Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM, with extended hours during performances and guided tours available by appointment.
