Where does the organ go when the movie starts? Why is there a stuffed peacock perched near the proscenium? (And, for that matter, what is a “proscenium” anyway?)Learn the Theatre’s secrets, stories, art and architecture and witness its historic restoration efforts with a “balcony to backstage” tour of Tampa’s majestic movie palace. The 90-minute tours kick off at noon in the Taylor Screening Room and include a demonstration of the Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Organ.
Please note that the tour route does include climbing stairs and extended periods of standing. Accommodations can be made for guests unable to climb stairs. Doors open 15 minutes before tour time.
These tours do sell out, so please consider buying your tickets in advance, either online or in person at the historic Franklin Street Box Office.
