Edison Theater, Entertainment venue in Zichron Moshe, Jerusalem, Israel
The Edison Theater featured a grand hall with 1,200 seats, high ceilings, and burgundy curtains near the intersection of Yeshayahu Street and Balliliouse Street.
The theater opened its doors on January 5, 1932, becoming the third cinema in Jerusalem, following the establishment of Zion Cinema and Eden Cinema.
The venue served multiple purposes, hosting film screenings, theatrical productions, and concerts, including performances by the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.
The theater introduced the first air conditioning system in a Jerusalem entertainment venue, providing temperature control for audiences during performances.
Local Third Aliyah pioneers constructed the building, incorporating architectural elements learned from Arab builders of that period.
