Detroit Opera House, Opera house on Broadway Street, Detroit, United States
The Detroit Opera House spans multiple levels with a Renaissance-style facade, marble columns, and gilded details throughout its 2,700-seat auditorium.
The Detroit Opera House opened in 1922 as the Capitol Theatre, designed by architect C. Howard Crane who created multiple performance venues around Grand Circus Park.
Michigan Opera Theatre performs classical and modern productions in this venue, which also hosts ballet performances, concerts, theatrical shows, and educational programs.
The theater provides guided tours lasting 55 minutes, with tickets priced at 10 dollars for adults and 8 dollars for students through online booking.
During its 1996 renovation, the theater incorporated advanced technical systems while maintaining original architectural elements from the 1922 construction.
