West Bend, WI

Scope of Work

Designed by the renowned Chicago architect firm Graven & Mayger, the Historic West Bend Theatre was built in 1929 but fell into disrepair and was shuttered in 2006.

After many years of neglect, the theater was restored to its original beauty, earning it a designation on the State and National Registers of Historic Places.

Project Details

The renovation involved a range of enhancements that restored the venue’s historical charm while integrating modern amenities.
One of the most remarkable improvements involved the careful restoration of the vibrant colors and intricate details of the original artwork that adorned the walls, proscenium arch, and ceiling.
Design elements were inspired by the period when the theater was first built.
Modern electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), and audio-visual (A/V) components were seamlessly integrated into the building.
The renovations breathed new life into the venue, celebrating its historical significance while paving the way for future generations to enjoy its rich cultural offerings.
