The Palace Theatre opened at the corner of Randolph and LaSalle Streets in Chicago on October 4, 1926 and featured a breathtaking vision inspired by the palaces of Fontainebleau and Versailles. The theatre's distinctive characteristics included a lobby richly appointed in huge decorative mirrors and breche violet and white marble, which swept majestically through a succession of lobbies and foyers; great wall surfaces enhanced with gold leaf and wood decorations; and 2,500 plush, roomy seats.
The theatre was originally opened as the flagship of vaudeville's legendary Orpheum Circuit, and among the stars believed to have played the Palace in its early years are Jimmy Durante, Mae West, Jack Benny, Sophie Tucker and Bob Hope.
In 1931 the theatre was converted into a movie palace, initially presenting films with live stage shows, and then eventually showing only movies, but in the 1950's, Broadway shows were occasionally booked at the theater. In the mid-1980's the venue was called the Bismark Theater and featured rock concerts. In 1999, the theater was renovated, renamed to the Cadillac Palace, and returned to a performance theater when it premiered "Aida". Check the Broadway in Chicago website for upcoming performances.
