Eglinton Theatre, Art Deco movie theater in Toronto, Canada.

The Eglinton Theatre features a dramatic sign tower with neon lettering, a three-stage pylon, and a front facade decorated with multiple lighting fixtures.

Constructed between 1935 and 1936, the Eglinton Theatre received the Royal Architecture Institute of Canada Bronze Medal in 1937 for its architectural excellence.

The interior contains an etched glass mural by artist John Clymer depicting three muses, along with Art Deco style female statues in the auditorium.

Located at 400 Eglinton Avenue West, this 300-seat venue transformed from a cinema into an event space after 67 years of movie screenings.

The theatre incorporates innovative materials of its time including Catalin, Vitrolite, stainless steel, and Flexwood throughout its structure and decorative elements.
