Madison Theatre, Historic movie theater in Peoria, United States
The Madison Theatre features Italian Renaissance architecture with a triple-arched window above the marquee and classical terra-cotta plasterwork throughout the interior.
The theater opened in 1920 as a silent picture venue commissioned by Dee Robinson and designed by architect Frederick J. Klein.
During 1996-2002, the theater hosted over 200 performances, including notable artists like Ray Charles and The Smashing Pumpkins.
The ongoing renovation project, with a budget of 35 million dollars, will restore the theater to accommodate 1,600 seats for various performances.
The Madison Preservation Association secured the building in 2022 and enlisted Daprato Rigali Studios to recreate the exact decorative elements from 1920.
