Additional Details:
The interior of Piper's Opera House is noted for its unusual architectural design with suspended balcony, rake (sloping) stage and spring dance floor. Here the most famous performers appeared in the bonanza days; Adah Isaacs, Menken, Mme. Helen Modjeska, Edwin Booth, Buffalo Bill Cody, Maude Adams, Lillie Langtry, Emma Nevada, the Georgia Minstrels, and many others. David Belasco was stage manager in the early days
