When this theatre opened it seated 800 people.

Not too long ago, the guy who was renovating the Oasis Historical Theatre in Pasadena was looking at taking this one on, too.

During the 60’s the theatre was operated by Century Theatres, Statewide Theatres, Loew’s, GCC, SRO Theatres and the last the last chain Pacific Theatres. Going inside Roxy’s auditorium was like walking into the old Bruin Theatre in Westwood. The Roxy had side wall sconces like the Bruin and was about the same size.

The Roxy was alway one of Glendale’s most popular theaters. In the late fifties it underwent a remodel with a new and larger marquee. When it reopened, Jayne Mansfield made a personal appearance! In the early sixties most of the Doris Day comedies played here with lines almost around the block.
