Easy to buy tickets online and choosing your own seats. Not a bad seat in the Holland center and our favorite place to go.

When I arrived in Omaha for a 2 week business trip, I checked to see what was playing. To my delight, I was able to get a ticket to see the Lion King on a Wednesday evening. The place was almost sold out. Beautiful facility and fantastic musical!

We attended a performance of "The Lion King" at the Orpheum Theater. A beautiful theater with comfortable seats and nicely arranged so heads in front of you didn't block your view. We will definately come back to see another off-broadway play as they tour in the area.

Saw the Lion King at the Orpheum with my 9 year old daughter recently. This was our first time at this theater, and it is gorgeous. It pains me to give a bad review of the performance, but the volume was far too loud. (In every other way it was lovely). We were in the center of the orchestra section... More

The Orpheum always has great shows coming to it and the theater is wonderful. You can park across the street and use the sky walk if you don't want to go outside! It's just great!

Saw the Lion King at the Orpheum. Beautiful old theater. Shortage of ladies bathrooms, couldn't get everyone through during intermission. More snacks to purchase would be great.

I saw the second night of the Dvorak Festival and it was amazing. The musicians really put a lot of heart into it. A great Evening in a great venue.

The acoustics at the Holland are exceptional. This is a great facility . Omaha should be so proud to have this calibre of venue for art in its city.

I really enjoy this venue and often find myself marveling at the decor. I have loved every single show put on in the Orpheum, partly due to the atmosphere!
