Oriental Theatre - 24 W. Randolph St. Chicago, IL 60603 "As one of the first motion picture palaces whose décor was inspired by the Far East, Chicago’s Oriental Theatre opened to much fanfare on May 8, 1926.

In the heart of downtown Chicago's Loop area stands the Oriental Theater, formerly known as the Iroquois Theater, where ghostly echoes of a tragic past continue to resonate. In the infamous fire of 1903, nearly 600 souls met their untimely end. Although the theater underwent a complete transformation and a rebranding, the spirits of the departed endured.
