Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Pasadena Community Playhouse, 1927. Several tall palms stand before the structure, obscuring the view of the playhouse. Two staircases lead up to the entrance, set apart by a fountain. A house-like area with a window appears at left, while a three-story structure can be seen at center. The paved street runs through the foreground.
