City Theatre (Detroit)

City Theatre is a 500-seat theatre in the Hockeytown Café building in downtown Detroit, Michigan. The theatre is the former site of the Second City Detroit, which relocated to the suburb of Novi in 2003. The City Theatre, owned by Olympia Entertainment, opened in its place mid-2004. The new theater is host to concerts and plays as well as comedy shows.

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or theatre:

    ...some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him, saying, “Go away, baldhead! Go away, baldhead!”
    Bible: Hebrew, 2 Kings 2:23.

    Elisha--proving that baldness has been a source of sensitivity for centuries, Elisha cursed them and they died.

    As in a theatre the eyes of men,
    After a well-graced actor leaves the stage,
    Are idly bent on him that enters next,
    Thinking his prattle to be tedious,
    Even so, or with much more contempt, men’s eyes
    Did scowl on gentle Richard.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
