Fun things to do at the Guthrie!

Fun things to do during your visit to the Guthrie!


INSIDE

Self-Guided Audio Architecture Tour
On your smartphone, go to www.guthrietheater.org
Click on ‘more info’ on the bottom right of the screen
Click on Self-Guided audio tours and select the audio you wish to listen to
Or, if you do not have a smartphone, you may request an iPod from our Box Office free of charge (just show them your badge) between 11:00am to 5:00pm on level 1.


Guthrie Store (Level One) Open 11 am – 5 pm
Shop a thoughtful mix of handcrafted gifts and jewelry, show-specific merchandise, play
scripts, and unique items made exclusively for the Guthrie. Take home a souvenir from your visit!


A piece of history (Levels One, Four and Five)
Enjoy a who’s who of acclaimed actors pictured in backlit photo boxes in the Wurtele Thrust and McGuire Proscenium lobbies, as well as ghostly images of past performances
printed on our walls and ceilings.


Blue Wall (Level Four Lobby)
Architect Jean Nouvel wanted to give patrons a peek into the action backstage, hence this
glass wall. Peer through it for an occasional view of our stage crew working, and see the
expansive scene shop’s entrance.

Amber Box (Level Nine)
Officially dubbed the Citizens of Minnesota Overlook, this lobby with amber windows
provides a near 360-degree view of this historic neighborhood, including the river, Gold Medal Park and the downtown skyline.


Endless Bridge (Levels Four and Five)
Perhaps the most noteworthy feature of the Guthrie is a cantilever that extends 178 feet
from the face of the building. Check out the postcard effect of the windows, directing your eyes to specific attractions in the landscape.





OUTSIDE

Jundt Terrace (Levels Four and Five)
Despite its name, the Endless Bridge does come to an end and it is magnificent. Step
outside, take a seat and enjoy one of the most spectacular views in the city. Experience a
bird’s-eye view of the falls, the birthplace of Minneapolis.


Playwrights al fresco
Who says you can’t judge a book by its cover? Step outside to the Guthrie’s western exterior to view majestic photos of Tyrone Guthrie and seven playwrights whose greatest
works have graced our stages and inspired generations of theatergoers.


Take a Walk over the Stone Arch Bridge, or Climb the Hill next door in Gold Medal Park for stunning views of the Guthrie.


Visit the Mill City Museum 2 pm – 5 pm only!
Show your KCACTF badge and enjoy FREE General Admission to the Mill City Museum from 2 – 5 pm.  Enjoy learning about the flour milling industry, the Pillsbury dough boy, and fun facts about the heritage and history of Minneapolis. Your badge also will get you a 10% discount on their Gift Shop and a discount to their “Flour Tower” tour which is awesome!  The museum is located just three doors away for the Guthrie.


Izzy’s Ice Cream
1100 2nd St. S.
Discover amazing flavors of homemade ice-cream just a short walk from the Guthrie.
