Tips from locals
Great venue for live shows, I'm also a fan of their classic movie nights. This Art Deco movie palace also offers historic tours.
If you are lucky enough to be in town during one of the CLASSIC black and white movie Premieres at this opulent Art Deco theater complete with news reel, cartoon and Deco-wheel and prizes. It is a great deal and you can dress up or down for the occasion. It feels like you are stepping back in time.
This iconic art deco theatre hosts all kinds of events, from concerts to classic movies, and in the coolest of spaces. Movies often are preempted by an organ concert, pop culture trivia with prizes, old news reels, and other quirky shenanigans.
Lots of great shows in this renovated masterpiece. Also see what is happening at the Fox.
