The building started as a quiet movie spot thanks to the perfect acoustics, furnished interiors and the beautiful balconies and skyline. It has for a long time been the best place to capture diverse cultures both on film and on stage. The jewel of South Florida was the last to show Vaudeville arts. It has also held the position of the number one spot to catch movies in Miami for over 40 years and still competes with modernized state of the art set ups. Some of the most exhilarating performers to have set stage here include B.B King, Etta James, Luciano Pavarotti and Elvis Presley. It is today one of the best spots for most MTV stars ranging form music to stand up comedy.
