 History & Architecture of The Pabst Theater   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-14)
The dominant ornament in the auditorium is a seven-foot tall statue of Apollo, flanked by the muses of Drama and Song, upon the apex of the proscenium arch.
A walk down the colonnade that links the theater to the center is like a walk back in time, as the ceiling becomes higher, the decorative columns change from modern to more ornate, and the lighting adjusts from modern and indirect to Austrian crystal fixtures at the entrance to the theater lobby.
Today, The Pabst Theater is the centerpiece of Milwaukee’s downtown theater district...a magnificent example of architecture of another time and era that serves performers and audiences of the 21st century as it did at the turn of the 20th century.

 AUGUST U. PABST - PHOTOGRAPH SIGNED
"Auggie" Pabst was at the helm of Milwaukee's oldest brewery when it closed its factory there in December 1996 after 152 years in the city.
At the time, Pabst, which had ranked third in beer sales nationally during the 1970s, had dropped to sixth as a result of crushing competition (especially the introduction of specialty beers by micro-breweries), mismanagement and union disputes.
Pabst's brewing operations were moved to a competitor's plant in La Crosse, Wisconsin, leaving only the Pabst mansion and the Pabst Theater as the family's legacy in Milwaukee.

The Pabst Theater in Milwaukee wasn't even half full for The Outfield show last Thursday night (July 10), but the couple hundred fans were ready for the group that hit the music scene in the mid-'80s.
The founders of the band, Tony Lewis (lead vocals and bass), along with John Spinks (bass), along with drummer Jeff Gish, formerly of the popular Milwaukee band The Now, took the audience on trip back to a time of big hair and loud music and even shared some new tunes.
The three-member band and their music were the focus on the stage-no flashy backdrops, obnoxious costumes or headache-inducing light shows-a welcome change these days.

 Pabst Theater plans to add 'Wintergarden'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-14)
In sync with the fashionable push to put more life on the street, the Pabst Theater plans to build a glassy "Wintergarden" along its Water St. side, brightening an unfriendly blank wall across from City Hall and creating new breathing room for the theater's cramped lobby.
It should become much friendlier with the addition of the Wintergarden, a row of windows on the theater's third floor, where the administrative offices are, and possibly some banners on either side of the windows.
It's no secret that Norquist, among others, would like to see the theater eventually run by someone other than the city, which contributes $150,000 annually in operating costs and another $75,000 in capital costs and put in $475,000 toward stabilizing the east wall.
