The Washington Post had an article today (including photos) on the former Park Theatre’s return to the arts:

I’m working at the former Park now, which is being converted into a dance space. We’re trying to dig up anything we can on the theater’s history but are having a hard time- it seems it really was upstaged by the nearby Tivoli! I would love to hear anything you remember about the theatre!

The Park opened on April 20, 1951 with “I’d Climb the Highest Mountain”.

The Park closed on January 28, 1962 with a double bill of “The Hustler” and “The Guns of Navarone”.
