Brief History of
the Crump Theatre |
In
a building dating to 1874, John Crump opened his Opera House in
1889. In 1914, the first movies were shown, and not long
afterwards, the Opera House was renamed the Crump Theatre.
In 1934, seating was increased when the orchestra pit was removed,
and the same year, the Crump was nearly renamed the Ritz.
The Crump underwent a thorough renovation in 1941, when it was
redesigned in Art Moderne style, including its dramatic facade,
with its two-story tall vertical marquee, illuminated by chaser
lights.
The Crump remained popular for decades, until declining ticket
sales forced the theater to close in 1987. That year, the old
theater came close to being demolished, but fortunately was
spared.
Since 2001, the Crump has been undergoing a restoration project,
with the facade's repairs completed by late 2001, it's marquee lit
up for the first time in many years during that year's holiday
season. |
