Cigar manufacturer Carl S. Swisher financed the San Marco building; construction began in 1927, and the first show in that house, Boy Meets Girl, opened January 4, 1938. The company took the Theatre Jacksonville name in 1969. Mayor Hans Tanzler’s proclamation later named it the city’s official theater. The Little Theatre building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 12, 1991. The Jaxson’s historic-theatres survey repeats that timeline and distinguishes this stage from the 1938 San Marco movie theater down the street, which closed January 1, 2023. Stay Safe Jax leaves warning flags at 0. A century-old community theater with a 4.5 Google snapshot is a positive, ordinary arts listing. Stay Safe Jax does not add the company’s own website.
