About this Event

Step inside the historic Warnors Theatre for a rare behind-the-scenes tour through nearly 100 years of Central Valley history, architecture, and artistry. From its grand lobby and glowing mezzanine to its mysterious basement dressing rooms and the original 1928 Robert Morton organ, this tour offers guests an immersive look at the people, performances, and preservation efforts which keep this cultural gem alive.

Guests will learn about:

• the history of our iconic theatre, including the visionaries behind it

• local legends, visiting celebrities, and stories of spiritual encounters

• the legacy of community behind the curtain

• current revitalization efforts to preserve the building


The tour will take guests through the mezzanine, into the theatre (and on stage!), as well as into the basement and dressing rooms, as well as the balcony. New to this tour: we'll go underground to the boiler room, which still contains our building's original boilers!

Our visit will end with a visit to Frank's Place where each guest will receive a signature adult beverage or mocktail!

Shortly after our tour ends, everyone is also invited to attend the pipe organ concert, featuring our resident organist Cactus Harris.

This experience is both a love letter to the past, as well as a rally for the future. All proceeds will support the nonprofit which maintains, protects, and programs Warnors Theatre.
