Crump Theatre, Historic theater in Columbus, United States
The Crump Theatre on Third Street presents a Romanesque Revival structure with thick walls, rounded arches, and an Art Deco interior renovation from 1941.
Built in 1889 by architect Charles Franklin Sparrell, the theater originated as Crump's New Theatre after John Smith Crump purchased the former Keith's Arcade property.
The venue established itself as Columbus' first opera house, opening with a performance by the Norcross Opera Company and later incorporating both vaudeville acts and films.
The Columbus Capital Foundation maintains this National Register of Historic Places property at 425 Third Street for various performances and community gatherings.
The theater survived a potential demolition in 1987 through community efforts and received recognition on Indiana Landmarks' Top 10 Most Endangered List in 2019.
