9th Annual “A Place Called Sacramento” Film Festival
Tomorrow, Sunday October 5, The Crest Theatre will have its “9 for 9″ Premiere. This gala event will feature the top 9 winners of the “A Place Called Sacramento“, a film festival featuring local Sacramento filmmakers as well as some local music. Tickets are $10 for the show, and an extra $5 for the Premiere Party.
Besides the film festival which will be great fun it is an opportunity to visit one of Sacramento’s oldest landmarks, the Crest Theatre. The site that the Crest Theatre sits on has housed a theatre since 1912. The first, the Empress, was a vaudeville theatre which opened in 1913. The second, The Hippodrome, was originally a vaudeville house which converted to a motion picture theatre in the late 1920’s. In 1946, the Hippodrome interior was demolished and the Crest was built inside the Hippodrome building shell.


This sounds like a cheap ticket. I like bargins and this seems to be a good one. I plan on being there. Maybe I will see you there.
Wow, very fairly priced! I would have guessed a lot more.
