The Fox Theatre, a former movie palace, is a performing arts center located at 527 N. Grand Blvd. in St. Louis, Missouri. Also known as "The Fabulous Fox", it is situated in the arts district of the Grand Center area in Midtown St. Louis, one block north of Saint Louis University. It opened in 1929 and was completely restored in 1982.HistoryThe Fox was built in 1929 by movie pioneer William Fox as a showcase for the films of the Fox Film Corporation and elaborate stage shows. It was one of a group of five spectacular Fox Theatres built by Fox in the late 1920s. (The others were the Fox Theatres in Brooklyn, Atlanta, Detroit, and San Francisco.)When the theater opened on January 31, 1929, it was reportedly the second-largest theater in the United States, with 5,060 seats. It was one of St. Louis's leading movie theaters through the 1960s and has survived to become a versatile performing arts venue.The Fox was designed by an architect specializing in theaters, C. Howard Crane, in an eclectic blend of Asian decorative motifs sometimes called Siamese Byzantine. The interior is the architectural twin of another Fox Theatre built in Detroit in 1928. Reporters in 1929 described the Fox Theatres in St. Louis and Detroit as "awe-inspiringly fashioned after Hindoo (sic) Mosques of Old India, bewildering in their richness and dazzling in their appointments... striking a note that reverberates around the architectural and theatrical worlds." William Fox nicknamed the style the "Eve Leo Style" in tribute to his wife, who decorated the interior with furnishings, paintings and sculpture she had bought on her trips overseas.
Started in a vacant retail space in one of St. Louis' oldest neighborhoods, 1900 Park was born from a musicians desire to perform on his own terms and a curator's urge to create a unique listening environment for those that love music. Though still evolving, 1900 Park has become a place of immersion for appreciators of not only music, but also of art and photography as the curator pairs the visual and sonic together to create a distinctive experience. From the local and emerging to the national and touring, the musicians and artists are from all genres and mediums with one common trait; they share the vision of 1900 Park. When 1900 Park is not being utilized for these experiences, it is available for various uses; some of which have included plays and film screening to holiday and neighborhood parties. 1900 Park; a space for expression, experience and awakening.
