dbo:abstract
  • Das am 24. März 1928 eröffnete Stanley Theater am Journal Square in Jersey City war eines der größten Theater der USA. Das Theater wurde von entworfen, besonders der einer Straße in Venedig nachempfundene Hauptsaal mit 4.300 Sitzen fand Anklang in der Bevölkerung. In den 1960ern wurde es als Konzertsaal genutzt, unter anderem traten hier Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin und Tony Bennett auf. Das Stanley Theater wurde 1978 geschlossen und begann zu verfallen, ehe es 1983 für 800.000 US-Dollar von der Religionsgemeinschaft der Zeugen Jehovas gekauft und restauriert wurde und seither als Kongresssaal der Zeugen Jehovas genutzt wird.

  • The Stanley Theater at Kennedy Boulevard and Pavonia Avenue is near Journal Square in Jersey City, New Jersey. The theater opened to the public on March 24, 1928. Mayor Frank Hague attended the ceremonies that evening and, with the audience, was greeted on the screen by actress Norma Talmadge. An orchestral performance, a stage show called "Sky Blues," a newsreel, and a musical piece on the Wurlitzer organ preceded the showing of The Dove starring Talmadge and Gilbert Roland. The Stanley was designed by architect Fred Wesley Wentworth (1864-1943), who is noted for designing many buildings in Paterson following the 1902 fire. When it opened, its 4,300 seats earned it the rank of the second largest theater on the East Coast, behind only New York City's Radio City Music Hall. It was fourth in the country in number of seats in a one-screen theater, behind Radio City, and the Detroit and St. Louis Fox theaters. It was an elegant and popular venue into the 1960s. Stage shows at the theater reflected the popular culture of the times with entertainers ranging from The Three Stooges and Jimmy Durante to Tony Bennett, Janis Joplin, Dolly Parton, and the Grateful Dead. During the 1970s, however, movie attendance suffered and the theater fell into disrepair, and became an RKO (Radio-Keith-Orpheum Pictures) grindhouse. The once beautiful metalwork throughout the building was painted dark blue, and the Wurlitzer organ was removed in the 1970s. It finally closed as a movie theater April 20, 1978. In 1983, the building was purchased by the Watch Tower Society for use as a convention and assembly hall for Jehovah's Witnesses. Thousands of Witness volunteers worked over a nine-month period to renovate the theater. Beginning in October 2012, the theater underwent further renovation by over 2,000 Witness volunteers from across the United States. (en)
