The Hippodrome closed in the 70’s and, unfortunately, was torn down. I believe it was Cleveland’s largest theatre. Five large theatres still remain in Playhouse Square. One of the last managers of the Hippodrome, Jack Silverthorne, died on April 16. His obituary is in the April 24 Plain Dealer. The Cleveland Public Library may be able to help you locate a photograph.
