“This is a transformational time at Potawatomi Casino Hotel,” said Dominic Ortiz, Potawatomi Casinos and Hotels’ CEO, in a statement issued Monday. There will also be a bar and food service inside. The new venue will have a 120-foot video screen capable of showing multiple events simultaneously. Now, construction is set to begin soon on the casino's permanent new Sportsbook venue, which will take over both the theater space and the adjacent Fire Pit Sports Bar & Grill space.
The final performance in the 22-year-old, 600-seat theater was by Herman's Hermits with Peter Noone this past Friday. The Northern Lights Theater at Potawatomi Hotel & Casino has closed and the space will be converted into the casino's new Sportsbook venue.
