Originally opened as a movie theater in 1929, the Fox Theatre and Tours cost USD6-million, an incredible sum at a time when movie tickets cost 35 cents. The theater was restored to its original glory in 1981. View the wall of famous signatures, the 2,000-pound chandelier in the auditorium and the gilded throne chairs in the lobby. Tours are conducted Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 10:30am. Thursday and Saturday tours include entertainment by Stan Kann on the world-famous Wurlitzer organ. Broadway hits such as "Phantom of the Opera," along with famous comedians and musicians have been featured here in recent performances.
