This exhibit showcases the Palace Theatre - which is beginning its second century as a cultural fixture in the city - as well as the many iconic theaters that live on in the memories of Manchester residents, such as the State, the Strand, the Lyric, the Modern, the Vitaphone, the Crown, the Rex, and so many others. Extraordinary photos from the MHA's own collection will be complemented by artifacts, posters, costumes, memorabilia and mementoes from the Vaudeville and Burlesque era right through to the city's many motion picture palaces.
