Abbeville Opera House

Jimmy Durante, and Groucho Marx are just some of the famous people who played this opulent old house during the great traveling road show era. Today, the Opera House is fully restored to its turn-of-the-century condition. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the theater uses the same rope pulled rigging systems as in 1908, and is the only "Hemphouse" remaining in South Carolina.

Once again, this "Grand Old Theater" is being used for its original purpose - to present live theater as the cultural hub of Abbeville and the Upstate Region of South Carolina. Today, the Opera House houses a community theater Winter Season and a repertory theater company each year. Performance information is available from the Box Office at (864) 459-2157.
