ABOUT

HISTORY
Originally opened in 1926 as The Greenwich Theatre, it began as a vaudeville house with a rare luxury: air conditioning. After closing in 2007 to meet fire codes following the Station nightclub tragedy, community fundraising enabled it to reopen January 26, 2013. Notable past performers include Todd Rundgren, Blue Oyster Cult, and Hot Tuna.
