	Orpheum Theatre Audience Title Orpheum Theatre Audience Date Original ca. 1935 Description Photograph shows the interior of the Orpheum Theatre with a large audience of women. The main floor, mezzanine and balcony all seem to be filled to capacity. The projection room can be seen at the very top of the image. Location Depicted 57 South Kellogg Street, Galesburg, Knox County, Illinois Subject Orpheum Theatre (Galesburg, Ill.) Audiences Theater audiences Theaters Balconies Mezzanines Women Crowds Galesburg (Ill.) Photographic prints Notes From the appearance of the women's clothing and hats in this image it appears to have been taken in the mid 1930's. Since the audience seems to be made up entirely of women this may have been the Foods on Parade cooking school which was held yearly at the Orpheum Theatre for several years. Address verified in the 1936 Galesburg City Directory.
