| What is it? |
The Midwest Theater is still open for movies, theater, and live music performances! |
| What makes it historical? |
The Midwest Theater rose from the ashes of the Egyptian Theater on May 3, 1946. It was designed in the Modernist style by Denver architect, Charles D. Strong, who himself had to rise from the ashes after the Great Depression destroyed his business! The theater’s 60-foot stainless steel tower features 132 aluminum stars backed by 68 spotlights, which could be seen from 20 miles away! |
