San Gabriel Mission Playhouse
San Gabriel Mission Playhouse, Mission Revival style theatre in San Gabriel, US
The San Gabriel Mission Playhouse features a 1,387-seat auditorium with painted ceilings incorporating Native American design elements and Spanish lantern replicas from the 1800s.
Constructed between 1923 and 1927, architect Arthur Burnett Benton modeled the theatre's facade after the San Antonio de Padua mission in Monterey County.
The theatre maintains a 1924 Wurlitzer pipe organ, originally from Brooklyn's Albee Theatre, and presents regular performances, concerts, and community events throughout the year.
Located at 320 South Mission Drive in San Gabriel, California, the theatre provides numerous free parking spaces for visitors attending performances and shows.
During World War II, the theatre's dressing rooms were converted into residential apartments, marking an unexpected transformation in the building's function.
