Imagine….
Marble
fireplaces, parquet floors, a carved mahogany entrance.
Original
tea sets.
Chandeliers
and antique sofas galore.
1,252
theatre seats.
Over
1,500 theatre LIGHTS.
A 26
feet deep [36 feet wide] stage & a whoppin’ 34 feet wide proscenium.
[what the heck
is a proscenium]?...The area of a
modern theater that is located between the curtain and the orchestra.
Hoyt Sherman Place is one of Des Moines’ most
magnificent entertainment, banquet, and meeting facilities.
Everything from weddings, Des Moines Woman’s
Club gatherings, and concerts to historical tours, art gatherings, and business
meetings are welcomed [and rocked] at this venue.
The original land, purchased in 1850 for just
$105, now houses this one of a kind historical landmark…that Des Moines is OH
SO LUCKY to have!
Did
you know: each room in Hoyt Sherman is available for special events! But…while
visiting, do keep an eye on your cell phone [the most often lost item at the
venue].
