Description

Completed in 1917 by architects Rapp & Rapp as a Balaban & Katz movie house, this historic smaller capacity theater brings a century of entertainment history to Chicago's Uptown district. Its French Renaissance style interior preserves a warm, character-filled setting complete with balcony seating and strong acoustics, though visitors note that renovations remain decades behind.
