Arthur Lucas and architect C.K. Howell opened
the Lucas Theatre in December 19 21. In 1986, a
group of Savannah citizens pooled their resources
to purchase the building and began a $12 million
restoration. The theatre reopened in 2000.

The Weis Theater was built in the midst of the post-
World War II construction boom. The theater held
the distinction of having one of the largest movie
screens in the South and was the first theater in the
Southeast to be built with air conditioning adjustable
to the needs of the audience. The structure reopened
as Trustees Theater May 9, 1998. (1500 Theater)

Designed and constructed by noted architect William
Jay, the theatre has undergone several facelifts due to
disasterous fires in its 200-year history. Its current Art
Deco style is a reflection of its most recent remodel
after a 1948 fire. Today, the Savannah Theatre is
home to a cast of professional players who perform a
regular rotation of six shows per year. (525 Theater)
