Frequently Asked Questions

What did the Stifel Theatre used to be called?
The Stifel Theatre in Saint Louis, MO was formerly known as the Peabody Opera House. Before that, it was originally called the Kiel Opera House when it first opened in 1934. The venue underwent significant renovations and was renamed the Peabody Opera House in 2011 after reopening. In 2018, the naming rights were acquired by Stifel Financial Corporation, leading to its current name, Stifel Theatre. This historic venue has hosted a wide array of concerts, Broadway shows, and special events over the decades, making it a cornerstone of St. Louis's vibrant arts and culture scene.
What are the best seats at the Stifel Theatre?

Rows toward the front of Orchestra Center (Rows D through M) often provide an immersive experience without being too close. If you prefer a more elevated perspective, the front rows of the Mezzanine Center are highly popular, offering a sweeping view of the performance and excellent acoustics. The Stifel Theatre is known for its intimate atmosphere and excellent sightlines, ensuring a great experience from nearly every seat.

What happened to Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis?
Kiel Auditorium was a historic multipurpose arena and theatre complex in St. Louis, Missouri. Opened in 1934, it hosted countless memorable events, including concerts, sporting events, and political rallies. The auditorium was closed in 1991 and subsequently demolished in 1992 to make way for the construction of the Enterprise Center, the current home of the NHL's St. Louis Blues. While the main auditorium was razed, the adjoining Kiel Opera House (now Stifel Theatre) was preserved and later restored, continuing its legacy as a premier performing arts venue in downtown St. Louis.
