This presentation examines the history of the Detroit Opera House. The theater known today as the Detroit Opera House has been an integral part of the area’s culture and history since it opened in 1922. Generations of patrons, including many Grosse Pointers, have memories of attending films, stage presentations, and other events as it transitioned from the Broadway Capitol to the Paramount to the Grand Circus Theater, before being renamed the Detroit Opera House in 1996.
Presenter Mike Hauser is the Marketing Manager of the Detroit Opera House. Mike’s previous Bicknell presentations include “Downtown Detroit’s Movie Palaces” in October 2008; “20th Century Retailing in Downtown Detroit” in April 2009; and “Remembering Hudson’s: The Grande Dame of Detroit Retailing” in May 2012. He has written several books on Detroit through Arcadia Publishing; his book “Detroit Opera House,” with Marianne Weldon, is available for purchase via Arcadia Publishing: https://www.arcadiapublishing.com/Pro....
About the Bicknell Lecture Series:
In 1987, Dr. Frank Bicknell, a long time Grosse Pointe resident and well-known Detroit Medical Center urologist, celebrated his 80th birthday. His daughter and son-in-law established the Grosse Pointe Historical Society's Bicknell Fund to mark his milestone birthday. This fund established the Dr. Frank Bicknell Lecture Series; all Bicknell Lectures are free of charge and open to everyone.
