Dock Street Theatre, Theatre in French Quarter, Charleston, United States

The Dock Street Theatre features classical architecture with wrought iron balconies and sandstone columns incorporated during its 1835 renovation period.

The original structure, opened in 1736, earned recognition as the first building in America specifically constructed for theatrical performances.

Charleston Stage produces over 100 performances annually at the theatre, including classics like A Christmas Carol and contemporary shows like Legally Blonde.

The venue contains modern lighting and sound systems following a 19 million dollar renovation in 2010, enhancing the theatrical experience.

The Planter's Punch cocktail originated at this location when the building operated as the Planter's Hotel during the nineteenth century.
