Located at 71 Public Square in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, the F.M. Kirby Center stands as a brilliant example of Art Deco-Moderne architecture. Opened in 1938 as the Comerford Theater, it later became the Paramount before taking its current name after a restoration effort led by the community. With a striking facade of terra cotta and marble, a marquee that calls back to the glamorous movie palaces of the past, and modern amenities behind its historic veneer, the venue hosts a wide variety of performances—from concerts to theater—with both charm and comfort. Situated in Wilkes-Barre’s Public Square, it sits close to shops, restaurants, and the pulse of downtown activity, making it a centerpiece for arts and entertainment in the region.
