Titania Theatre, Schlosstrasse 5-6, Berlin

 Motion Picture News, June 7, 1930 

"Germany's Newest contribution to theatre architecture."


"One of the most unusual theatres, architecturally, in Europe. This is an interior view of the Titania, a picture house in Berlin-Steglitz. The sweep of the building lines is designed to focus the attention of the audience where it belongs on the screen. The stage arch is fringed with organ pipes which serve a double function of practicability and the striking in decoration."




Since 1997 theatre historian,  Cezar Del Valle, has conducted a popular series of  theatre talks and walks, available for  historical societies, libraries, senior centers, etc.
Del Valle is the author of the Brooklyn Theatre Index, a three-volume history of borough theatres.
The first two chosen 2010 OUTSTANDING BOOK OF THE YEAR by the Theatre Historical Society. Final volume published in September 2014.
Currently seeking funding for “Editing & Formatting” the first three volumes of the Brooklyn Theatre Index, 3rd Edition
