Returning from a national tour as a special Passover event. The Boston Phoenix reported that this "wryly humorous 80-minute mini-musical is as wise a deconstruction of the Book of Exodus as one could wish for."

Page 1 of 1 In the world of sterile, cookie-cutter multiplex theatres it's refreshing to find a company that cares about the past. A company that understands the importance of history and preserving our landmarks. A company that looks at the moviegoing experience as more than just ticket sales but as an experience to be remembered and treasured. At Classic Cinemas, we are that company. Our theatres occupy historical buildings throughout the Chicago area. When these buildings were acquired by Classic Cinemas many were in states of disrepair. We've spent countless hours restoring them to their original splendor, often preserving as much of the original architecture as possible. The result are unique movie theatres unlike any you will find. Theatres that echo of the golden age of moviegoing and invoke memories of days gone past. But don't let the package fool you. All of our theatres are equipped with the very latest in sound and projection technology. The result is comfortable, modern moviegoing experience that is truly unique.

Restoration Once And Future Glory The Story of The Loew's Jersey Theatre O nce upon a time, the great film studios of old Hollywood built theatres the like of which no one had ever seen before. They had marble columns that soared to ceilings covered in gold leaf, bronze railings, rich red tapestries and plush carpets. And they were huge, with thousands of seats. These buildings seemed more like palaces than theatres. Not surprisingly, they came to be called Movie Palaces. In spite of their name, Movie Palaces were as much legitimate theatres as cinemas. They were equipped with full stages, orchestra pits and dressing rooms, as well as projectors. Because in that long ago time the still-new movies were presented as part of a double bill with live stage shows of elaborately choreographed dance revues or a mix of song, dance and comedy acts variety shows once known as Vaudeville. Most Movie Palaces were also fitted with massive pipe organs. Originally intended to add sound to silent films, these instruments became stars in themselves as organ concerts, as well as audience sing-alongs, became popular parts of the regular programming in many Movie Palaces.

Current Season Welcome History Mission ... School Day Performances HISTORY OF THE ALLIANCE THEATRE The Atlanta Municipal Theatre christened the Alliance Stage in October 1968 with an awe-inspiring production of King Arthur . After some initial restructuring, the theatre changed its name in 1970 to the Alliance Theatre Company. By the late 1970s, Artistic Director Fred Chappell and Managing Director Bernard Havard celebrated a period of artistic and financial growth including the world premiere of Tennessee Williams' Tiger Tail and the presence of actors Richard Dreyfuss, Paul Winfield, Morgan Freeman and Jane Alexander. In the 1980s, Edith Love served as managing director and Bob Farley was named artistic director. Artistic highlights included the world premiere of Sandra Deer's So Long on Lonely Street , which moved to Broadway, and Alfred Uhry's Driving Miss Daisy , which ran for two years in the Hertz Stage and toured to Russia and China. In 1989 Kenny Leon joined the Alliance staff as assistant director, and in 1990 was tapped as artistic director. Leon made substantial changes during his tenure - diversifying the staff, the productions, and the artists. As a result of his efforts, the African-American audience grew from less than 5% in 1990 to over 25% today. The theatre produced several world premieres during this time including Pearl Cleage's

Vaudeville - Stage entertainment consisting of various unrelated acts (as theatre, performing animals, acrobats, comedians, dancers, or singers) The site that the Crest Theatre sits on has housed a theatre since 1912. The first, the Empress, was a vaudeville theatre which opened in 1913. The second, The Hippodrome, was originally a vaudeville house which converted to a motion picture theatre in the late 1920's. In 1946, the Hippodrome interior was demolished and the Crest was built inside the Hippodrome building shell. Opening night for the Crest was Thursday, October 6, 1949 and the picture was "That Midnight Kiss" from MGM. In attendance from Hollywood were stars of the film Kathryn Grayson and Mario Lanza. Government officials included Governor Earl Warren (later Chief Justice of the Supreme Court), and the Honorable Belle Coolidge, the first woman mayor of Sacramento. Searchlights filled the air as the theatre was properly christened. The theatre then began to showcase films for thirty years, until late 1979 when a variety of factors including the decline of the K Street mall, television and the multiplex forced it to close. In 1986, the theatre was re-opened by a group of local Sacramentans with the vision of preserving the Crest for all of Sacramento to enjoy once again. The grand re-opening took place on November 18, 1986 with the MGM musical "Singin' in the Rain" starring Donald O'Connor who attended the event in person. Mr. O'Connor was given a pair of scissors and, with a smile, snipped the celluloid ribbon across the front doors and the Crest was in business again.

Ticket Information!! Theatre History Mission Statement Administrative and Production Staff Listings Board of Trustees ... Home History of League of Resident Theatres: Capital Repertory Theatre is proud to be one of seventy-two professional theatres in LORT, the League of Resident Theatres. Today, these affiliated theatres provide thousands of artists with a support system for developing new work as well as reviving classics and perennial favorites. Hundreds of thousands of people now have the opportunity to experience the highest caliber of performance right in their own communities. History Of Capital Rep In the 1960's, when the not-for-profit arts scene was initiated with support from the federal government, the world of theatre was a different place than today. New York City was truly THE theatrical center of the country. A few select cities were lucky enough to be stopping points for a Broadway show's national tour, but there were literally no professional resident theatres outside the Big Apple's Great White Way. In fact, the Actors' Equity Association had very little means of working with theatrical groups outside of New York, except for summer stock or touring venues. Zelda Fichandler, of the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C.; Margo Jones in Dallas; and Tyrone Guthrie in Minneapolis are three important figures that changed all that. These artistic leaders helped to channel support from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to theatres outside New York City. This action was the beginning of a sweeping decentralization movement based on the principle that culture belonged to the entire country. The NEA helped establish a network of institutions across the country dedicated to supporting our country's cultural heritage through nurturing excellence in performing arts and education.

Theatre in Exeter Story of the Northcott Theatre The Northcott Today Photo Gallery Past Northcott Theatre Company ... Back to Home Page History of Theatre in Exeter The history of theatre in Exeter, or rather of live entertainment for the masses, can be traced back to the Roman occupation of the city. There is a reasonable amount of archaeological evidence that points to the existence of a Roman amphitheatre on Dane's Hill. Between the 13th and 18th centuries, plays and other formalised story telling were performed by groups of strolling players; companies of actors who would literally walk from town to town performing where they stopped for bed and board. They would perform in any suitable place, as there were no permanent venues. The first reference to a play in Exeter dates from 1348 when a sect known as the "Order of Brothelingham" was forbidden by the Archdeacon and the Dean of Exeter from "holding processions and enacting scenes in the streets". There followed performances of mystery plays by the Skinners Guild, and visits from mummers and minstrels to entertain the mayor. In 1593 Lord Strange's Company performed Marlowe's Dr Faustus in a city inn. So the story goes, they were so convincing that they actually managed to conjure forth the devil himself! The inn emptied very rapidly!

98. Fox Theatre : History Atlanta's Fox theatre, originally the Yaarab Temple Shrine Mosque, was designed inthe late 1920's as headquarters Its history has been as dramatic as its decor http://www.foxtheatre.org/history.html

Atlanta's Fox Theatre , originally the Yaarab Temple Shrine Mosque, was designed in the late 1920's as headquarters for the 5,000-member Shriner's organization. It was a beautifully outlandish, opulent, grandiose monument to the heady excesses of the pre-crash 1920's, a mosque-like structure complete with minarets, onion domes, and an interior decor which was even more lavish than its facade. Entering the huge auditoriums, an early reviewer for the Atlanta Journal described "a picturesque and almost disturbing grandeur beyond imagination." Visitors encounter an indoor Arabian courtyard with a sky full of flickering stars and magically drifting clouds; a spectacular striped canopy overhanging the balconies; stage curtains depicting mosques and Moorish rulers in hand sewn sequins and rhinestones. The interior was a masterpiece of trompe l'oeil; false beams, false balconies, false tents, ornate grillwork hiding air conditioning and heating ducts. Virtually every practical feature was disguised with artistic fantasy. Detailing and furnishing were equally ornate. Nothing - no space, no furniture, no hardware - escaped the gilt, the tile, the geometric design. Men's and Ladies' Lounges, broom closets, telephone booths were all emblazoned with intricate plaster, bronze and painted detail.

Circle History OUR MISSION IS THE ADVOCACY OF CONTEMPORARY PLAYS RARELY SEEN IN THIS COMMUNITY. WE ARE COMMITTED TO PRESENTING PROFESSIONAL, INNOVATIVE THEATRE IN AN INTIMATE SETTING! Founded in 1981, Circle Theatre is a non-profit arts organization that presents a year-round season of comedies and dramas. The Theatre derives its name from its original location on Bluebonnet Circle, near Texas Christian University, in Fort Worth, Texas. In 1987, Circle Theatre made an interim move to Fort Worth's historic south side , at the request of civic leaders wishing to encourage a better quality of night life in that neighborhood. In March 1994, Circle renovated and moved into the basement space of the Sanger Building in downtown, Fort Worth. Patrons enjoy Circle's comfortably intimate atmosphere and often comment on the added benefit of being close to the action on-stage. The auditorium seats 125 audience members - arena style - around an open thrust stage. A 1200 square foot lobby provides ample space for display of visual arts and a concessions area. As a recognized Equity Theatre, Circle provides work for professional artists wishing to remain in Texas while pursuing their careers as actors, directors and designers for the theatre. Circle Theatre celebrates Texas' unique and colorful cultural diversity. The Theatre produces works by Texas playwrights such as Robert Schenkaan, Larry L. King, Oliver Hailey, Del Shores, and Horton Foote. It also encourages and produces works by developing playwrights from our region. Patrons and critics applaud Circle's spirit of adventure in presenting many premieres of contemporary plays.
