Elks Opera House

Over a Century of Performances, Some Still Continuing

The History

The Elks Opera House and Performing Theatre was built to bring legitimate theatre and cultural events to territorial Prescott.

For over a century, it has hosted performances, community events, and gatherings. The building represents Prescott's ambition to be more than a rough mining town: it wanted to be a capital worth the title.

The Haunting

Activity at the Elks Opera House involves performances that continue when the building should be empty.
