Summer at the Northrop Auditorium

Ugh! There aren't any popular events coming to the Northrop. I'm in despair! I need something to do now that summer is here. In search of a fun and promising social scene, I stumbled on some July Varsity Theater events. Might as well!

The Varsity Theater in Minneapolis is hosting great events in the month of July (including Owl City!!). As a city second only to New York City, Minneapolis Theater productions sell out quickly. I'm giving you a heads up on these events! Take this opportunity to purchase your tickets early!

Northrup Auditorium parking

Northrop parking is located south of University Avenue on Church Street in the Nolte and Church Street Garages (usually $9) and the corner of 17th Avenue and 4th Street at the 4th Street Ramp (usually $9). The Northrop is not my favorite place to park and there are often traffic jams coming and going to major events so plan ahead!

Northrop Auditorium Photos

I recently was assigned a task to go around Minneapolis, St. Paul and suburbs and take pictures of all of the gorgeous venues! I think there were 24 total venues I snapped photos of. We sure are lucky to live in Minnesota where sports, concerts and theater are extremely popular hobbies!

Northrop Memorial Auditorium

The Northrop Memorial Auditorium located on the campus of the University of Minnesota is one of the finest on-campus auditoriums in the nation. Northrop Memorial Auditorium is now the state's largest theater and the largest college campus auditorium in the country. The building was constructed in 1928 on top of a former College of Pharmacy medicinal herb garden. The grand looking gathering place has beautiful white majestic pillars that are now one of the University of Minnesota's major icons and focal points.

Northrop Memorial Auditorium is located at 84 Church St SE in Minneapolis, MN.

The auditorium was named in honor of Cyrus Northrop, the second president of the University (1884-1911). The Northrop was designed by Clarence H. Johnston, a famous local architect.

The Northrop Auditorium History and Northrop Events

The Northrop Auditorium is a classy intimate venue to see a good show. The limited number of seats in the Northrop Memorial Auditorium make tickets to music headliners a much sought after commodity.

Donations by University students, faculty/staff, alumni and friends funded the $1.35 million construction of the Northrop Auditorium. The auditorium was built to be used as the University's central ceremonial site with commencements, lectures, convocations, and performances. The Northrop was built with 4,800 seats, this capacity allowing the entire student body of that day to be assembled under one roof.

Upcoming events at the Northrop include:  Brahms/Haydn Variations, Quest for the World's Best Baskets, Haley Bonar, Adam Meckler Orchestra, Salsa del Soul, and Allison Scott.

Jin Xing Dance Theatre Shanghai

Jin Xing, China's most celebrated dancer, and her company Jin Xing Dance Theatre Shanghai will showcase a retrospective of 10 of her best works over the last 25 years.

Shanghai Tango, though not actually a tango, will showcase a contemporary Shanghai.

Check out Jin Xing Dance Theatre at the Northrop Auditorium!

Northrup Auditorium Ballet Preljocaj Snow White

Ballet Preljocaj is a contemporary ballet company from France, and will be performing Snow White, a romantic and contemporary retelling based on the Grimm brothers' fairytale.

This full-length story ballet features massive sets, twenty-six dancers, and an amazing roster of French artists and designers. Preljocaj's choreography demonstrates space, energy and feelings, using inventive gestures, clever substitution and pirouetting.

If you're a true fan of the arts, the Northrup is the place to go to see amazing artistic talent!

Northrup Auditorium Houston Ballet

The Houston Ballet will be performing at the Northrup Auditorium for two performances, Friday March 23 and Saturday March 24, 2012.

The Houston Ballet is known for it's visually stunning, virtuosic performances and one of the heirs to both the Balanchnine and Ballet Russe legacies, the anticipated return of the beloved Houston Ballet is razor-sharp dance at its finest.

The Houston Ballet is the fourth largest ballet company in the U.S. and at this Northrup performance, will feature the best of both classic and contemporary ballet.
