Portland's theatre history is marked by early enthusiasm and
exceptionally vigorous growth. With the Pacific Northwest's often
rainy weather, people sought refuge in movie entertainment, and the
city eventually grew to have more theatre seats per capita than
similar-sized cities in the United States. Beginning with short
cinema segments at vaudeville houses downtown, Portland movie
theatres came into their own swiftly and ambitiously. By 1915,
there were over 70 individual theatres showing films both downtown
and in neighborhoods throughout the city. By the 1920s, larger
theatres were being built, including substantial neighborhood
palaces such as the Bagdad, Hollywood, and Oriental. Meanwhile,
downtown provided the Broadway, Portland, and Orpheum, to name a
few. This volume contains an overview of Portland's theatre history
through rare and newly discovered historical photographs of those
memorable places of entertainment.
