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:
“half-way up the hill, I see the Past
Lying beneath me with its sounds and sights,—
A city in the twilight dim and vast,
With smoking roofs, soft bells, and gleaming lights,—
And hear above me on the autumnal blast
The cataract of Death far thundering from the heights.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
“I think theatre should always be somewhat suspect.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
