Keith Albee Performing Arts Center

Keith Albee Performing Arts Center

The Keith Albee Theater is a bastion of the Huntington Art scene. Opening to the public in 1928, the Keith Albee Theater has been able to survive all of the changes of entertainment mediums.

In the 90+ years that it’s been open, it’s been able to survive the shifting dynamics of radio, TV, and the Internet. Mediums that have wiped out many theaters.

Today, film festivals, weddings, graduations, dance recitals and a host of other events are held at the Keith Albee Performing Arts Center. Touring Broadway shows and name acts, ranging in recent years from Frankie Valli and Smokey Robinson to Taylor Swift and Jay Leno keep the Keith-Albee’s stage busy as well.

Perhaps most importantly, Marshall University’s “Marshall Artists Series,” which is distinguished as the second longest running collegiate performing arts series in the nation, has presented top national acts and shows on the Keith Albee’s stage since 1939.

More recently, the theater became the permanent home to the Huntington Symphony Orchestra.
