Building Memories

The Auditorium’s history is unparalleled throughout the artistic world.  The vision of our original architects, the list of performers to grace our stage, and this historic landmark's importance throughout the community all help to make our beloved theatre one of the most prominent and legendary locations of its kind.  However, the Auditorium's landmark structure--and the pinnacle of adulation that surrounds those who step through our doors--are not nearly as inaccessible as one might think. In fact, as a dear friend to the Auditorium Theatre, you now have the chance to add your name to our legacy. 


 The Auditorium’s 3,800 seat house has been filled time and time again over the last 125 years as millions of audience members have passed through its doors.  Each of those individuals has an invaluable memory of their time here--including you.  Now, in celebration of our 125th anniversary, you have the opportunity to share your memory on our "Memory Wall," a permanent installation to be built on the north wall of the Auditorium Theatre's lobby.   

Whether it’s seeing The Who, or a “who’s who” of American dance…whether watching a child's eyes light up during a performance of “The Nutcracker” or marveling at the beauty of Adler and  Sullivan's vision... those experiences can now be recorded forever.  And whatever your favorite memory of the Auditorium might be—witnessing a performance or marveling at the architecture, attending an event or experiencing a show with your friends—you can now share it for future generations to enjoy.
