Beverly's Historic Cabot Theater To Showcase 3-Month Renovation

BEVERLY, MA — Beverly's historic Cabot Theater is set to showcase a three-month interior renovation with special tours set to unveil the upgraded green rooms and Stageside Lounge.

A rock music photography exhibition from Eric Antoniou from his coffee table book "Rock to Baroque" will be part of the grand reopening celebration.

The tours will take place on Oct. 7 with the new Stageside Lounge serving as a gathering place for sponsors and Icon members before performances.

"We're thrilled to welcome our supporters back into The Cabot to see the results of these renovations," said Brian Ridolfo, Executive Director of The Cabot. "The new dressing rooms give our artists the professional space they deserve, while the Stageside Lounge offers our sponsors and
members a beautiful new gathering place. These updates strengthen our ability to host world-class talent and create memorable experiences for everyone who comes through our doors."

Antoniou will be at the exhibition to talk about his 240-page tribute to live performances from David Bowie, Rolling Stones, Frank Sinatra, Kurt Cobain, Donna Summer and more.

"It's an honor to share my work at The Cabot, a venue that has long celebrated both music and the arts," said Antoniou. "With (Rock to Baroque), I wanted to capture not just the energy of legendary performances, but also the shared experience between artists and audiences — something The
Cabot embodies beautifully."

The remainder of The Cabot's exterior renovations will be complete by the end of the year.
