About The National
The National – theatre building in Richmond, opened in 1923, capacity 1,500.
The National, formerly the National Theater and then Towne Theater, is a historic theater and performance venue located in Richmond, Virginia, US. Part of a section of Broad Street once known as Theatre Row, it is the only one of the three original auditoriums still standing. Built in 1923, the theater was constructed with an adaptable stage that allowed it to show early motion pictures as well as live performances. After a 1968 conversion to a dedicated cinema house it was renamed the Towne Theater, in which capacity it operated until closing in 1983. After an extensive renovation, the theater reopened in 2008 as The National, serving as a live music and performing arts venue.
