The Palace is also home to the projects of LDL members such as the Kenjitsu Dojo Oakland, a private recording studio, and several artist’s studios. Brief history of the theater:
The Palace was built in 1921 as a vaudevillian theater featuring some of the most talented and long forgotten greats. She was built strong, made of Iron and masonry in attempts to make Oakland theaters more safe. In 1931 she was built-out to look like a palace, with cityscape walls and a large proscenium arch that featured the best movies of the day. This original work is still intact by 80% and is undergoing restoration. In 1953 the theater was converted into a baptist church, and it is in this form that she stayed for 60 years. Until now, taking new directions with LDL Inc. she is once again a theater and neighborhood arts and events fixture. Lucid Dream Lounge encourages you to think outside the black box, and up your fun!
