Did you know that the Elsinore is named after the City of Elsinore in Shakespeare's Hamlet? Since arising in 1926 on a former livery stable site, the castle-like Elsinore Theater has served our community as a truly unique performing arts center. This architectural and acoustic wonderland houses the largest pipe organ in the Pacific NW and is a registered Historic National Landmark.
Salem's Cultural Center
The Elsinore has hosted events ranging from Cecille B DeMille silent movies, Mickey Mouse Theater, James Earl Jones, and Clark Gable. In recent years the Theater annually welcomes over 100 events including our own Salem Symphony, Dwight Yoakum and George Lopez. Funded by an endowment, the Elsinore manages a variety of programs that provide thousands of young people a positive experience with plays, music, education and more.
A Legacy of Community Support
The Historic Elsinore Theater is a non profit organization whose mission is to "promote, protect and preserve". In 1980, grassroots efforts led by the Save The Elsinore Committee raised funds needed to purchase the Elsinore and save it from from demolition. Massive restorations have followed including a $3.2 million dollar restoration led by the Architect firm Curry Bradshaw. Brett served on the Board during the capital raise and renovation. The Davis Altman Group continues to be a long time donor to the Elsinore, having hosted client events and sponsoring concerts at this historic venue.
