20th Century Theatre

The 20th Century opened in 1940, built for William David Gross, who also owned the Coliseum Theatre in Juneau.

Around 1940, the 2/8 Kimball organ from the Coliseum Theatre was moved into the 20th Century, which was fortunate, because a couple years later, the Coliseum Theatre was destroyed in a fire. (The Kimball organ was removed from the 20th Century Theatre in 1976 and now is located in Juneau’s State Office Building).

The 20th Century Theatre was twinned in the early-1980’s by creating a second auditorium out of the balcony. The auditoriums were remodeled in 2004, and feature DTS sound. Both auditoriums feature the original 1940 Simplex projectors.
