Talk:Front Row Theater
Spelling question
[edit]Note from creating the page: the place may have used the spelling "Theatre," which would have been consistent with its 70s-faux-upscale marketing (e.g., the champagne bar). See, e.g., this court decision, which can be assumed to use the formal corporate name correctly. The place's ubiquitous-at-the-time logo did not include that word, though, it only said, in lowercase letters, "the front row," and every secondary source that I found uses the "Theater" spelling, so I chose that one.
