The Douglass Theatre hosted early jazz and blues greats such as Otis Redding, Bessie Smith, James Brown, Ma Rainey and Little Richard while running the feature length films and serials popular throughout the country at the time.
Now newly renovated, the Douglass Theatre serves all races and cultures, providing multicultural events and films and holding educational performances for area school children.
True to its historic reputation as a magnet for the entire community, "The Douglass" draws widely-varied audiences for its 35mm 3D, limited run and premier films as well as for it's national-quality performance events.
We hope you find our website entertaining as well as informative. Feel free to contact us with questions, or better yet, come by for a visit and see the wonders of the historic Douglass Theatre!
