Beacon Theatre, Historic theater in Hopewell, United States
The Beacon Theatre features three stories with an auditorium displaying classical plaster friezes, cast-stone details, and decorative bands of flush brickwork throughout its structure.
Constructed in 1928 by architects Osbert L. Edwards and Fred Bishop, the theater operated as both a vaudeville stage and movie house until its closure in 1981.
This Colonial Revival and Art Deco building earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000, acknowledging its architectural and historical value.
The venue currently hosts concerts, weddings, corporate events, and special occasions in its multiple spaces, including ballrooms and an intimate concert setting.
Following extensive renovations completed in 2014, Leon Russell performed at the sold-out reopening concert, marking the beginning of the theater's modern entertainment era.
