Originally opened in 1920 as a live theatre, the Crist Theatre became a movie theatre in 1939.
In October 2002, after several years of fund-raising and renovation, the Loveland Stage Company, founded in 1979, moved into the former Crist Theatre building.
Sadly, the building was badly damaged by a fire on October 20, 2008.

A sad addition to history of the Loveland Stage Company, articles from Cincinnati, Ohio Enquirer newspaper carry news of a fire which gutted the facility Oct.20,2008 leaving damages estimated at $300,000.00. The Theatre dates from 1939 as a movie cinema prior to use as a live presentation house with 29 years of productions. Funding a new roof could possibly put the Stage Company back in business, but it will take a massive fund raising.
This is a photo taken after the fire.
According to an Enquirer news article of July,9,09 a little over $70,000 has been raised to help restore this former theater. A grand opening is planned for Nov. 6,2009. They will open with the musical,“Miss Saigon”.
