Central City Opera House
Central City Opera House, Opera house in Central City, United States.
The Central City Opera House features Renaissance Revival architecture with a crescent balcony, arched windows, and a painted ceiling medallion depicting the sky.
Welsh and Cornish miners constructed this 550-seat performance venue in 1878, which later functioned as a motion picture theater in the early 1900s.
The Central City Opera Company, established in 1932, maintains its position as the fifth oldest professional opera company in the United States.
The building stays cool during summer performances due to a creek that flows through a specialized flume system underneath the structure.
The opera house presents all performances in their original languages since 2000, departing from its previous tradition of English-only productions.
