David Baron, president of the Wilshire Theatre Beverly Hills, said in a statement, "The renovations for the theatre will roll out over the course of two to three years as part [of] a $30 million campaign. The renovations and modernizations to the theatre will include 5.1 Surround Sound, and making the facility digital. Our theatre was originally designed by legendary architect, S. Charles Lee. The Revitalization Project is being overseen by Jeff Green of Evergreen Renovations, and Ed Kelsey, a Supervising Project Manager. Our goal is to revitalize, modernize, preserve, restore and endow our magnificent venue."

The Wilshire Theatre Beverly Hills is located at 8440 Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills, CA. Tickets, priced $35 (general admission) and $125 (VIP seats plus a post-concert reception with the artists), are available by calling (323) 655-0111.
