Discover the Iconic KeyBank State Theatre
Experience a true masterpiece of architectural and theatrical design at the KeyBank State Theatre, one of the crown jewels of Cleveland’s Playhouse Square. Originally opened in 1921, the venue was conceived as a movie palace but quickly evolved into a haven for the performing arts. With its Italian Renaissance-style interior, sweeping grand staircase, and a breathtaking domed ceiling that spans the lobby, the State Theatre is an enduring symbol of elegance and cultural heritage.
The venue is now home to some of the most anticipated events in the region—from touring Broadway shows and operas to comedy acts, concerts, and family-friendly performances. Part of the nation’s largest performing arts center outside of New York City, the State Theatre is more than just a venue—it’s a historic landmark revitalized by community passion and creative vision. After a full restoration in the 1980s, it continues to captivate modern audiences with its perfect blend of past grandeur and modern functionality.
