Before this theater was built in 1849, the only entertainment available in Sacramento was found in gambling houses and saloons. Then, when the theater was built 49ers starved for culture, paid $5 in gold dust to enjoy dramatic and musical entertainment. In 1850, the Sacramento River flooded the theater. This reconstructed 80-seat theater is designated as an historic landmark. Docent-led tours are free and feature computerized slide shows covering Sacramento's early rough-and-tumble history. During summer weekends, the theater produces period melodramas as well as featuring musical entertainment.
