Fodor's Expert Review Vail-Leavitt Music Hall

Just off Main Street, this restored turn-of-the-century performance hall features theatrical performances and concerts year-round on its main or acoustic stage. In addition to serving as showcase for a variety of entertainment since 1881, it also has played an important role in entertainment history—in 1914 Thomas Edison tested out moving pictures here. Today the theater sometimes hosts special matinees of classic movies. Ask about theater tours.
