Bellevue Theater, Art Deco movie theater in Paco district, Manila, Philippines
The Bellevue Theatre features a symmetrical structure with a central decorative concrete plane and two rectangular volumes topped with domes on the sides.
Built in 1933, the Bellevue Theatre remains one of only two surviving movie houses from the twenty surveyed by American Express Company in their Manila tourist guidebook.
The theater incorporated Philippine Islamic imagery in its Art Deco design, drawing from moro-moro theatrical traditions with sculptures of harem maidens along the grand staircase.
The former 600-seat cinema, located at the intersection of Pedro Gill Street and Singalong Street, now functions as a retail clothing store.
The Neo-Mudejar Art Deco style of the theater includes emergency doors with pointed arches and a pseudo-grand staircase leading from the entrance foyer.
