History of the Palace Theatre The Palace Theatre’s history begins with Victor Charas, an immigrant from Thegala, Greece. In June of 1914, Charas began construction insisting that the Palace Theatre resemble a smaller version of its namesake in New York City. Charas determined that the Palace Theatre would include modern safety and comfort features including firewalls and “air-conditioning.” The theatre was “air-conditioned” by large fans that blew air over great blocks of ice under the stage. Construction was completed in less than a year, and on April 9, 1915, the Palace Theatre celebrated its grand opening night with a performance of the play, “A Modern Eve.” The Palace Theatre featured many different kinds of entertainment including ballets, operas, plays, variety acts, philharmonic concerts, and performances by The Palace Professional Players. Early on, the Palace Theatre joined the Keith and Albee Vaudeville Circuit. Vaudeville filled the Palace Theatre with numerous shows each week. Vaudeville was responsible for launching the careers of many great entertainers including Jimmy Durante, Bob Hope, The Marx Brothers, Red Skelton, Sammy Davis Junior, Milton Berle, Al Jolson, Harry Blackstone, Sr. Bill Robinson a.k.a. Mr. Bojangles, Ray Charles and Don Knotts; many of whom performed at the Manchester, NH Palace Theatre. Following the era of the “Great Depression,” talking movies had largely replaced Vaudeville. Beginning in the 1930s the Palace Theatre, like so many of its competitors, began to transition itself into a “movie house.” By the mid 1960s, the Palace was struggling and was eventually forced to close its doors. The theatre fell into disarray as the seats were removed and the space was converted into a warehouse.

In the early 1970s, the Palace Theatre was slated to be torn down and converted into a parking lot. However, in 1974, Attorney John McLane and Mayor Sylvio S. Dupuis spearheaded an effort to purchase and preserve the Palace Theatre. With assistance from the Norwin S. and Elizabeth N. Bean Foundation, the Palace celebrated its re-opening on November 2, 1974. Since 1974, the Palace has seen both calamity and success! In December 1980, a pipe burst in the roof sending 70,000 gallons of water gushing over the rail of the balcony onto the lower level. In 1984, a fire on Hanover Street damaged most of the block, but the Palace Theatre’s firewall saved the Palace and the rest of Hanover Street! The Palace Theatre has withstood the test of time and has become a beautifully restored professional performing arts center that hosts its own professional company, youth and teen programs and presenting acts to entertain, inspire, educate and connect its members and the community. The Palace serves as a cornerstone of New Hampshire’s thriving arts and entertainment scene and is a vital part of Manchester’s downtown economic and social community. In July 2012, the Palace Theatre was selected as the 2012 Outstanding Historic Theatre by the League of Historic Theatres. This prestigious award recognizes that the Palace Theatre has demonstrated excellence through its significant community impact, quality of programs and services, and quality of the restoration or rehabilitation of its historic structure. In a city that once hosted 22 theatres, the Palace Theatre is now the sole survivor. As we continue to thrive in our 104th year, the Palace Theatre would like to take a moment to thank the many donors, sponsors, employees, and patrons who have invested in our organization. You have made our progress possible, and we look forward to many more years of producing exceptional live theatre here in Manchester, NH!
