Crescent Theater is Mobile, Alabama's premiere independent movie theater, bringing the best in independent film, locally-produced cinema, and live performances to Mobile and the surrounding region.

History

The original Crescent Theater first opened its doors at 208 Dauphin St. in Mobile, Alabama in 1885 as a vaudeville theater. In 1912 it was converted to show 35mm silent black and white films in what was, at the time, the most up-to-date theater in the city. Rebuilt from the ground up, the Crescent Theater was reopened in October 2008 with a mission to bring independent arthouse films to the City of Mobile.
