After going dark because of the pandemic, many big entertainment venues in Wichita are reopening for live performances this spring.
Stages at the Orpheum Theatre, the Cotillion, Intrust Bank Arena and Wave have been dormant for more than a year.
The venues cancelled concerts and events, and temporarily shut down due to COVID-19 health restrictions. But now, they re starting to come back to life with new safety protocols.
The Orpheum
The historic Orpheum Theatre in downtown Wichita plans to reopen May 21 with a theatrical concert featuring local musician Jenny Wood.
“She will be incorporating one acts between her music, and it’s a mix of new music and all of the Jenny Wood songs you know and love,” says Mallory Rine, Orpheum marketing director.
