Majestic Theatre, Historic performance venue in Downtown Dallas, United States
The Majestic Theatre is a performance venue in Downtown Dallas featuring Renaissance Revival architecture with ornate design elements throughout. Its grand interior spaces showcase Corinthian columns, marble floors, and detailed plasterwork arranged across multiple levels.
Built in 1921 by architect John Eberson, the venue served as the main theater for Interstate Amusement Company. It replaced a previous building that had been destroyed by fire.
The theater evolved from a venue for vaudeville and cinema into a center for performing arts, attracting performers from many disciplines. Visitors experience a place where the legacy of entertainment continues through modern productions today.
The venue offers around 1,700 seats across multiple levels and includes modern amenities while being easily accessible from public transportation. Its downtown location makes it convenient to reach on foot or by transit.
The theater remains the last standing building from Elm Street's historic Theater Row, which once housed numerous entertainment venues. It stands as a solitary remnant of an entertainment district that vanished in the early twentieth century.
