Cecelia GonzalezNovember 25, 2017This theatre is over 80 years old and is the historic location where they found Lee Harvey Oswald. The atmosphere inside is very classic, has two levels, and clean. Must see!- Dallas ObserverOctober 16, 2013There are many cool venues around Dallas but it's impossible to replicate the history of an 80 year old building, especially that's been covered from the inside

- Oak Cliff Advocate MagazineNovember 10, 2011Since a group of young filmmakers took over the theater in 2010, this historic theater has become a popular place to see classic and independent movies. Plus there's that Lee Harvey Oswald thing.
