Seattle, Washington
The Moore Theatre is the oldest operating theatre in Seattle, located in the Belltown neighborhood. Opened in 1907, it was built to host vaudeville acts and has since evolved into a premier venue for concerts, theatrical productions, and lectures. The theatre is known for its diverse programming and its role in the city's musical history, particularly the grunge era.
The Moore features a mix of Italian Renaissance and Byzantine architectural styles. Despite its age, it remains a vital part of Seattle's arts scene, offering an intimate setting with excellent acoustics. It is operated by the Seattle Theatre Group, which also manages the Paramount and Neptune Theatres.
