The History of the glorious Gothic Theatre began in the roaring Twenties when magnificent movie palaces were the center of entertainment in society. The theatre’s grand art deco style awed the thousands of Denver residents who came to view the classic movies of the period. Its importance to the area may never be fully understood by those who were not there at the time. Generations of families spent hours of their lives within the theatre’s famous walls dreaming, laughing, crying, being entertained, and most importantly, creating memories. The theatres place in Denver’s history was cemented when the Gothic became the first in the city to show talking movies. Talk about blowing minds.
As time passed the fate of the Gothic began to change. With changes in ownership came changes in the architecture and look of the beautiful building. In the 1940’s the front façade was radically altered to keep pace with more modern tastes. Luckily the interior art deco finishes were left untouched (the rounded walls and wonderful recessed coves remain to this day). This atmosphere helps the building retain its connection with the historical past.
This is an amazing venue. Why is it closed 75% of the time? Bring in some local acts. There is so much talent in Denver, set up local nights 3 or 4 nights a week. Promote them, have specials! Don't let this great venue sit dark so often!
I don't care who you are. Every seat is this place is a great seat! Sound is fantastic IMO. Wish more of the bands I listen to would book here. Best venue in Denver, hands down.
