Genesee St., Waukegan, IL. 60085, Genesee Theatre is one of Waukegan’s oldest and most prestigious performing arts theaters. The venue first opened in 1927 and was originally a high-end movie palace, complete with a terra cotta facade, imported Italian marble, antique plaster decor and several other design elements that set the theater apart from other facilities of its kind and caused Genesee Theatre ticket sales to soar. The theater operated as a movie palace and vaudeville performance venue until it finally closed in 1989 due to economic decline and the advent of major movie cineplexes.
The Genesee Theatre remained dormant for over a decade when, in 1999, the city of Waukegan purchased the site and began renovations to transform it into a state of the art multipurpose performing arts venue. The theater reopened in 2004 and is now one of the premier locations for live comedy performances, concert events, Broadway musicals and much more. Artists like Alice Cooper, John Mulaney and Kenny Loggins have all graced the stage at Genesee Theatre. If you want to see the next big performance, get your Genesee Theatre tickets today with TicketSmarter.
