| About: | Forget about going to see the latest action flick; head to this charming theater for silent films accompanied by live organ music. This is truly a one-of-a-kind experience that you won't soon forget. The theater was first opened in 1922 as a performance theater. In addition to silent films, it shows historically important films of all genres, from comedy to drama. |

i wanna say...: I wanna say that this the theatre that I once saw "New Jack City," back in the day. You know the one starring Wesley, well anyway, it was the bomb! I thought they closed this place down but to hear that she is still holding it down, shoot you go girl!!!!
A unique little theatre: If you ever are in the Los Angeles area, don't miss visiting Old Town Music Hall. Whenever I am there on vacation, this theatre is a must. A cosy ambience that makes you feel like being in the 20's again, lovely decorations and lamps. Starting with live organ music and an impressive light show, followed by a sing-along with the audience (lyrics shown on screen) and finally a silent movie. Sometimes there are live bands playing. Open Fri - Sun.
Definitely worth a visit: I took my two children (8 and 11) for a Laurel and Hardy series. It started off with a great entertaining Worlitzer organ recital with all kinds of visual effects. My children liked it which is tough considering it didn't involve a video game. The follow up silent and talkie movies were entertaining also. Believe it or not my kids liked the silent movies the best. This is a must at least once. I think we are headed back tonight.

You drive west on El Segundo until you stop at the stop sign on Richmond Street. You turn right on Richmond and suddenly your car turns into a time machine bringing you back to the 1920 or 30's You get out of your car and walk into the theatre. A museum shows you what was back in time but this theatre lets you live it! This is as real as it will ever get. What great entertainment. Do not miss this great opportunity.
