The New Theatre had the honor and misfortune
of being on the same street as two of Baltimore larger movie houses,
The Century and Keith's. And yet , the New Theatre
continues to stand in 2004 after both the larger theatres were torn down
years ago. The future for the New Theatre looks bleak though, as major plans
have the entire area undergoing a renewal project.

The theatre ads on this page are from old
papers in Baltimore for the New Theatre. Having neighbors , such as the Century
and Keith's made the New a " second rate " house as far as maany locals were
concerned. The New Theatre always had colorful ads however, even if the movie
it showed weren't considered " top rated".
