The Fitzgerald Theater is known as the oldest active theatre located in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The theater is the home of American Public Media's Live from Here, formerly known as A Prairie Home Companion. The venue is under the ownership of First Avenue, and it has a seating capacity of 1,058. The theater opened for the local public in 1910, with the architecture design by Marshall and Fox. The Fitzgerald Theater is one of many theaters that the Shubert Theatre Corporation built, and was initially named the Sam S. Shubert Theater.

In 1933, the Fitzgerald Theater became a movie outlet known as the World Theater. In 1980, the site was purchased by Minnesota Public Radio and later restored with a stage in 1986 as a Prairie Home site. The theater was renamed after St. Paul native F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1994. The site was a host of a memorable election-eve debate between United States Senate candidates on November 4, 2002. The candidates were Walter Mondale (formerly a U.S. Vice President), Norm Coleman (previously mayor of St. Paul), moderated by Gary Eichten of MPR, and Paul Magers of local television station KARE.

The Fitzgerald Theater was used for filming the Prairie Home Companion movie in 2005, directed by Robert Altman. The theater also owns a theatre organ that Wurlitzer exclusively made.
