About

The Bobwhite Theatre is coming back to life!

Built in 1924, the Bob White Theatre started as one of many simple neighborhood cinemas in the Arleta/Powell area. It ran primarily as a movie theatre until the late 1960’s when the stage was extended to accommodate live music. After that point it served as home to a variety of film, theater and music until it was closed in 1986.

In 1990 Dale Haskins purchased the theatre, using it as his private residence, and built a connecting warehouse that he used to restore pipe organs. During this time the theatre was closed off from the public eye.

Now, after being dark for almost 30 years, the marquee will soon light up once again.

There is still much work to be done but we have big plans in the works for this long forgotten palace. Keep checking back on the status of the theatre as we continue to shine this place up!

Also look out for upcoming events in the Bobwhite’s warehouse venue!

The FoPo neighborhood is about to get even more happenin' with this grand adventure!
