Marquee of the Savannah Theatre in downtown Savannah, Georgia. First opened in 1818, the Savannah Theatre, on Chippewa Square, is one of the United States' oldest continually operating theatres. Due to multiple fires, the structure has been both a live performance venue and a movie theater. Since 2002, the theatre has hosted regular performances of a variety of shows, primarily music revues.
