Star Plaza Theatre
The Star Plaza Theatre was a live music venue located in Merrillville, Indiana. It was a 3,400-seat intimate venue with two seating levels in a semicircle around the stage. The Main Floor Level sat 2,000 people, and the Mezzanine Level, which overhangs the main level about midway, sat 1,400. The furthest seat in the auditorium was 120 feet from the stage. Among the entertainers to appear at the Star Plaza were Jerry Seinfeld, Bob Dylan, and Chris Rock.
The Star Plaza Theatre closed on December 17, 2017, after its final show with the only act to perform every year that the theater was open, The Oak Ridge Boys. The final song sung on the stage was "Amazing Grace". Demolition lasted throughout summer 2018.
