I am the grand daughter of the builder
who built many of the theaters in Philadelphia including the old Mastbaum. His son is my father who is still living today in Philadphia.
The Earle was Philadelphia’s first concert theatre, before The Uptown, The tower, The Spectrum, The First Union-Wachovia Center, and The Tweeter Center. It was originally called “Elrae” before it’s opening in 1924. It was one of Philadelphia’s finest theatres, including The Palace, The Fox, The Stanley, The Boyd/REG Sameric 4, and The Mastbaum
This theatre was in the art deco style and the architects were Magaziner, Eberhard and Harris.
