The Sheldon Theatre

Red Wing's turn-of-the-century Sheldon Theatre showcases the best in arts and entertainment from Minnesota's heartland and beyond. It operates year-round, presenting a broad range of touring events including music, theatre, dance, comedy, films, lectures and more. The Sheldon also produces its own shows starring local artists and performing arts groups including The Sheldon Theatre Brass Band, The Phoenix Theatre and The Red Wing Singers.Built in 1904 with funds from local businessman T.B.

Described as a "glittering jewel box," it charms performers and audiences alike.
