Profiles

State Theatre, originally known as Neumeyers Vaudeville House and now the State Theatre Center for the Arts, is a historic theater located in the City of Easton, Northampton County, Pennsylvania. The building began to take its present form in 1910, when modified from a bank building to a vaudeville house. The building was extensively modified in 1926, to include a larger auditorium, balcony, and lush decorations. It was at that time it was renamed "The State." The building is asymmetrical with a cut stone Beaux-Arts style facade and large overhanging marquee.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
