Tours

Tour Our Beautiful Venue!

We offer exciting educational tours for all to enjoy!  We encourage group visits to share and embrace all that this magnificent 1929 theatre has to offer. Tours of the theatre range from 30 to 60 minutes. The tour includes visiting various sections from backstage to mezzanine followed by a Q & A session.

Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Senior Groups welcome!

Visitors are amazed by the grand architectural design of this historic theatre and will learn about its history, interior design, the technical aspects, career paths in the arts, and theatre etiquette for our youngsters.  A favorite of all tours includes our backstage “Wall of Fame”, which is home to the signatures of many of the St. George Theatre’s past performers – from Jerry Seinfeld and Joan Rivers to Smokey Robinson, Ringo Starr, and Gladys Knight!
