Hollywood Masonic Temple, now known as the El Capitan Entertainment Centre, is a building on Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. The building, built in 1921, was designed by architect John C. Austin, also noted as the lead architect of the Griffith Observatory. The Masons operated the temple until 1982, when they sold the building after several years of declining membership. The 34,000-square-foot building was then converted into a theater and nightclub, and ownership subsequently changed several times, until it was bought by the Walt Disney Company's Buena Vista Pictures Distribution in 1998 for Buena Vista Theatres, Inc.Buena Vista Theatres uses it as a promotion tool by creating themed environments to go along with movie premieres. The center is also rented out for industry parties, premieres, record releases and product roll-outs. Since 2003, the building's theater has been the home of Jimmy Kimmel Live!.The building is rumored to have had a secret tunnel to Grauman's Chinese Theater that would allow movie stars to evade mobs at movie premieres. If it existed it is possible that the Red Line subway construction destroyed the tunnel.HistoryThe Masonic TempleIn 1922, the Hollywood Lodge of the Masons relocated from their existing lodge on the current site of the Dolby Theatre. The construction of the new three-story building was led by lodge master Charles E. Toberman, who was responsible for the Hollywood Bowl, Grauman's Chinese Theatre, the Roosevelt Hotel and the Max Factor Building. The original building cost $176,678, with a sum of $56,421 allotted to furniture and fixtures and $36,295 for the purchase of the lot. Toberman and fellow member Charles Boag formed a Hollywood Masonic Club to partly finance the building offering membership subscriptions for $100.

Lesly Kahn & Company, Actor Training: Lesly has been obsessed with actors and acting ever since she put on her pink tutu and fell off a stage into the arms of a waiting audience at the age of three. Years later, in spite of steady work and a terribly-impressive-but-not-all-that-useful MFA from the Yale School of Trauma Drama, she started teaching acting in NYC and discovered an approach to actor training that blew her mind (primarily because it always worked and was not all that complex). Previously panic-stricken performers were suddenly confident, consistent, working actors. Twenty-odd years later, she’s still at it.

The 387000sqft center also includes TCL Chinese Theatre (formerly Grauman's Chinese Theatre, and Mann's Chinese Theatre) and the Dolby Theatre (formerly known as the Kodak Theatre), home to the Academy Awards. The historic site was once the home of the famed Hollywood Hotel. Located in the heart of Hollywood, along the Hollywood Walk of Fame, it is among the most visited tourist destinations in Los Angeles.The complex sits just across Hollywood Blvd. from the El Capitan Theatre and offers views of the Hollywood Hills and Hollywood Sign to the north, Santa Monica Mountains to the west and downtown Los Angeles to the east. The centerpiece of the complex is a massive three-story courtyard inspired by the Babylon scene from the D.W. Griffith film Intolerance. The developer of the shopping center built part of the archway and two pillars with elephant sculptures on the capitals, just as seen in the film, to the same full scale. It gives visitors an idea of how large the original set must have been.

Tattoo artists: Dave David Paul Rob We use an AUTOCLAVE just like a hospital. We sterilize twice, once so we can handle the items then again after they are individually wrapped. We use more time and pressure than is required(45 minutes/20-25 pounds pressure) at 245 degrees fahrenheit. We are assured instruments are sterile by using the finest equipment and servicing it regularly. We get tattooed here, so we want the best for us, as well as you.

Earl Carroll Theatre
Distance: 0.9 mi Competitive Analysis
6230 W Sunset Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90028

He’s been called “the troubadour of the nude,” “the impresario of feminine epidermis,” “the elongated purveyor of feminine pulchritude,” and “the most notorious connoisseur of female flesh in the history of show business.” Earl Carroll was Florenz Ziegfeld’s only real competition in the late 1920s and early 1930s, but he left Broadway under a cloud of scandal and bankruptcy. Looking for a fresh start and determined to reinvent himself in Hollywood, he opened the colossal Earl Carroll Theatre at 6230 Sunset Boulevard on December 26, 1938. The 1000-seat “entertainment palace” and supper club quickly became known for the glory and gaiety of its grandiose productions featuring casts of 60 girls performing atop a double revolving stage. Guests were dazzled by more than six thousand feet of blue and gold neon and massive, 30-foot illuminated columns. For $1000, VIP memberships to Carroll’s Inner Circle guaranteed a lifetime cover charge and a reserved seating. While it was Carroll’s behind-the-scenes puppeteering that powered the operation, it was ravishing beauty Beryl Wallace whose face characterized the Earl Carroll Theatre to the world. Not only was she the star showgirl in Carroll’s lavish musical comedy revues known as “Vanities,” Beryl was his longtime devoted companion. “Thru these portals pass the most beautiful girls in the world,” the theatre’s celebrated slogan, encompassed a 24-foot neon silhouette portrait of the stunning chosen showgirl. Illuminating Sunset Boulevard, just east of Vine, the sign soon became one of Hollywood’s most famous landmarks. Following World War II and nearly a decade in Hollywood, Earl Carroll unveiled his plans for $15 million facility what promised to be the “World’s Largest Motion Picture Theatre and Broadcasting Studios” to be erected a half a block east of the existing structure on Sunset. Larger than Radio City Music Hall, the plans for the 7,000 seat theatre touted a 130-foot proscenium, three revolving stages, and an ice rink adjacent to a water tank, purportedly so that both Sonja Henie and Esther Williams could perform simultaneously with more than 100 dancing girls. Tragedy struck on June 17, 1948 when United Airlines Flight 624 crashed in Pennsylvania. Earl Carroll and Beryl Wallace were among the 39 passengers killed instantly. In true Carroll “show must go on” fashion, the grieving showgirls took the stage the following night presenting the Earl Carroll Vanities with Virginia Dew, Beryl’s stand-in, going on in her place. Carroll and Wallace were interred together in the Garden of Memory at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California. After operating in the red for more than a year, the Vanities came to a close on October 15, 1949 and the theatre went dark. The theatre reopened in 1953 as the Moulin Rouge nightclub and went through a number of incarnations (inlcuding the Hullabaloo, Kaleidoscope, Aquarius and Longhorn Theatres) before becoming the west coast production hub for Nickelodeon in 1997. Nickelodeon on Sunset is currently the production headquarters for the network’s "Victorious" television series. The legendary “Thru these portals…” neon sign is no more, but in 1993 the Museum of Neon Art created a replica of Beryl Wallace’s neon portrait. The replica is now on display and seen high overhead each day by thousands at the Universal City Walk at Universal Studios Hollywood.
