Fox Theatre (Visalia, California)
The Visalia Fox Theatre is a landmark movie palace and theater in downtown Visalia, California. Opened in 1930 as a part of the Fox Theatre chain, it was converted to a three screen multiplex in 1976. After a brief closure in the late 1990s, it was restored by a community group and reopened in 1999 as a live performance auditorium with a seating capacity of 1,275.〔http://www.foxvisalia.org/files/2012/01/History.pdf〕〔http://www.foxvisalia.org/files/2012/01/TechSpecs_VisaliaFox_2011.pdf〕
== Background ==
Designed and constructed from 1929-30 by Los Angeles-based architect Clifford A. Balch〔()〕 and engineer (Floyd E. Stanbery ), the Visalia Fox Theatre was erected at the end of the Silent Film era at a cost of ($225,000 ) (2.9 million in 2010 dollars). It is one of many such theaters throughout the United States and Canada built by William Fox and his Fox Film Corporation, later to become 20th Century Fox.〔https://digital.lib.washington.edu/architect/structures/16839/〕〔http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/610980/Twentieth-Century-Fox-Film-Corporation〕
The Fox Theatre opened on February 27, 1930. Opening night featured a talkie western, a newsreel, a Mickey Mouse
cartoon and a Laurel and Hardy comedy. The theatre and the streets around it were packed for the premiere—quite a feat in a town of 7,000—an indication of the central role it would play in the community for decades to come.〔http://www.foxvisalia.org/files/2012/01/History.pdf〕
