LUCAS THEATRE FOR THE ARTS
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.

TRUSTEES THEATER
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)

SAVANNAH THEATRE
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.
