Today the theater functions as a multi-use performing arts venue.

It opened in 1926 as the Keith-Albee Palace and featured live vaudeville along with silent feature films, an orchestra and "Miss Buckeye", a Style 260 3/16 Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ.

The dressing rooms are named after cities on the vaudeville touring routes.

It was later renovated and preserved by owner Katherine LeVeque as a home for Opera Columbus and touring Broadway shows.

The Palace now hosts performances by the Columbus Symphony Orchestra, the Jazz Arts Group, the Broadway Series, and scores of CAPA-sponsored shows.
