The Vogue Theatre is located on Sacramento Street in San Francisco, CA. It was most likely built in the 1940's and is presently operated by United Artists.

This year (2002) UA installed a new floor in the auditorium and put in brand new seats with cupholders. In August 2002, the roof was repaired and plaster work was done on the ceiling of the auditorium. Hopefully this is a sign that the cinema will be around for some time.

The Vogue theatre received more upgrades this year. Approx. 3 months ago the entire auditorium interior was re-painted.

San Francisco Chronicle article Wed Jan.7, 2004:
In part -
San Francisco's Vogue Theater, one of the city's last remaining single-screen movie houses, is on the market and will probably be sold to a local developer who plans to convert the one-story building into retail space or tear it down and build a mix of housing and retail on the Sacramento Street site.
...
The Vogue, which is currently showing "Cold Mountain,'' is one of a handful of venerable San Francisco neighborhood theaters being sold by the Regal Entertainment Group of Knoxville, Tenn., the nation's biggest movie theater chain.
...
Another bid was recently submitted by a group of local investors who want to maintain the Vogue as a movie theater. The group includes San Francisco Giants vice president and general counsel Jack Bair and Alfonso Felder, the Giants' director of administration and president of the nonprofit San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation, which aims to save local theaters.

The article mentioned above also said some other information on Regal's SF theaters (under the UA banner). It mentioned that the Alexandria is on the market for $6.5 million and that the leases for the Metro and the Galaxy 4 are on the market. The Vogue is on the market for $1.25 million. Their 280 Metro 6 screener in Colma was recently shut down due to competition from a new Century Theaters 20-screener in Daly City and that theater was sold to Best Buy.

In todays SF Chronicle looks like the Vogue has new owners. Did UA/REAGAL sell off the lease. Shows A SFNTF THEATRE wwwvoguesf.com Opening under new management Aug 24 2007. This is good news. UA sells all they can to make money on the land that theatres sit on. But for the San francisco UA/REGAL VOGUE lools like It has a few years left?

The SF Theatre Foundation just bought the Vogue and will operate it as Peerless Entertainment.

I hope they go back to using the stage lights and the red curtains before the movie.
