Yucca Theatre, Historic theatre in downtown Midland, United States.

The Yucca Theatre is a Midland theatre built in Assyrian style from large cut sandstone blocks, with marble columns and columns on its facade. Inside, designer H.B. Layman added gilded bulls, stencilled lotus flower lamps and a two-tier balcony. The auditorium holds over 1600 seats and hosts Broadway in the Basin and other performances.

Thomas S. Hogan, an oilman and former Montana senator, announced plans for the theatre in 1927 to complement the nearby Petroleum Building. It opened on December 5, 1929, with vaudeville acts and films. After focusing on movies, the original Yucca closed in 1974; volunteers restored it in 1981, and it is listed as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark.

The venue hosts the annual Summer Mummers production running from June through Labor Day, featuring locally written melodramas and musical variety shows. This event series has become an important part of the city's cultural life.

The theater sits in downtown Midland on North Colorado Street and is easily accessible from the city center. Visitors should check ahead for current programming to plan their visit accordingly.

The Assyrian-style interior, by H.B. Layman, has gilded bulls, winged lions and stenciled lotus flower lamps, a fashion linked to the 1929 discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. The 1981 restoration kept these details but replaced the cabaret seating with tables and chairs.
