Description
The Texas Theatre, home of Palestine Community Theatre, is the crown jewel of downtown Palestine and the finest venue for live entertainment in East Texas.
The Texas Theater opened in 1921 on Crawford Street, primarily as a vaudeville house. It was designed in a Spanish Colonial style. In 1930 it was remodeled in an Atmospheric / Italian Renaissance style by architect W. Scott Dunne. From the 1940's into the 1960's, the Texas Theater served as a movie house.
After two devastating fires, and a host of closings and re-openings, the Texas Theatre has been reborn to its new purpose - live theatre.
