famous movie theatre in the world.
Our IMAX stands apart too. It's the world's largest IMAX auditorium, as well as the only movie palace
in California with a state-of-the-art IMAX Laser projection experience. Watching a movie here is
not just a night out, it's a memorable event. The IMAX laser experience at the TCL Chinese Theatre
represents a quantum leap forward in cinema technology - providing audiences with the sharpest,
brightest, clearest and most vivid digital images ever, combined with a whole new level of immersive
audio. The experience of seeing a movie at the TCL Chinese Theatre IMAX is truly unparalleled.

The Morosco Theatre opened on January 6, 1913,
bringing full-length dramatic productions to LA's
theatre district. Two of the greatest names in
American theatre were involved in building and
operating the theatre: Oliver Morosco and the Photo by Escott O. Norton
Belasco family. In the Depression, the 1400-seat
theatre was renamed The President, then switched from stage productions to movies and newsreels.
Then, in 1947 the theatre was renamed the Globe. A brutal conversion to retail space in 1987 ended

nightclub "Club 740," the house is now being
partially restored as a multi-purpose performance
venue.
