Variety, April 13, 2021:
"The workers at the ArcLight Hollywood have been on furlough for more than a year, and have been waiting
eagerly for the venue to reopen. On Monday, they got word that the
theater would remain closed permanently."
From back of postcard:
"The only theatre of it's kind in the world. Located in the Cinerama Center, Sunset and Ivar, Hollywood, it is the first geodesic dome in concrete anywhere in the world. It is the first major theatre built in Hollywood in 35 years.
It is an endless network of electronic marvels. Gold is the dominant color in the richly fabricated carpet and drapes. Striking innovations in lighting and luxurious seating provide unbelievable comfort and beauty."
