Cave Theatre

Anyone know if this building is currently used as a topless bar called the Hollywood Cabaret at 6315 Hollywood Blvd?

The answer is yes according to the text with this photo. The text reads "That yellow marquee is the former Cave Theatre, now remodelled into the Hollywood Cabaret".

The Cave Theatre was just one of those remodeled store front type X-Rated theatres that ran Adult features during the 70's-80's. The original tenant of at that location was Sardi's Diner in Hollywood which the architect was Rudolph Schindler. So the Cave Theatre was not a former theatre that started running porno, it was just a remodeled retail space.

Although Hollywood is not a city per se, the Cave should be listed as being in Hollywood for the sake of consistency.

Google won't map the address if you use "Hollywood".

Here is a March 1975 ad from the LA Times:

Here is a photo of the Cave Theatre that I took last week.

The old Cave Theater as seen in that picture from 1981 was a great place. The interior was all done up like an actual cave. the curved cave ceiling and walls. The uneven cave floors. Some of the seating areas were partitioned off into almost booth like areas with low cave walls.

The atmosphere was very sleazy inside and as far as the management was concerned there was a policy of pretty much anything goes. It was not uncommon to see some pretty wild stuff going on in the audience as well as on the screen.

Shouldn't this be listed under Hollywood, not Los Angeles?

I guess this is another request to have this listing put under the Hollywood area of the site. Since all the other Hollywood area houses are listed that way.
