The Theater

Let the show go on in this show-stopping space.

Our theater maintains many classically-restored, original features - such as plaster work, mosaic tile and woodwork. Your guests will enjoy the five stained glass windows which flank the North side of the Theater, detailing the five missions of the Topeka Woman’s Club: forestry, arts, literature, civics and music. Two additional stained glass windows with the Topeka Woman’s Club emblem are located in our glassed-in balcony, which is also included in your rental.

The ornately-detailed stage and stadium-style seating make this space perfect for exchanging your vows or putting on a show. Our Theater is located on the main floor of The Beacon next to the Founder’s Room bar. With two unique entrances, it may be used in conjunction with other spaces or independently.
