Built in 1928, the Ohio Theater was originally a movie house. Now, the theater hosts over a hundred performances annually, including examples such as CAPA performances and performances by Broadway Across America, the BalletMet, the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, and many other national and international touring artists. If you are looking for romantic date ideas in Columbus, watch a performance at the Ohio Theater.
From lively concerts to classical music, visitors can enjoy the show in one of the Ohio Theater’s 2,791 seats and appreciate not only the performance but also the surrounding Spanish-Baroque architecture, lush interior, excellent acoustics, state-of-the-art stage facilities, and a breathtaking 21-foot high chandelier. Visitors can view the original furnishings that were brought in from all over the world and cost more than it took to construct the building.
