Theatre Information: Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why do you have reserved seating at the Egyptian?

A: With reserved seating, the guest knows that the theatre will not be over-sold, that the seat they choose is one that they want and not what is left over then they arrive at theatre.

Q: Are there Chinese tunnels under the Egyptian?

A: This is an urban legend that has been around for years. The tunnels referred to mostly disappeared in the mid-70's when Main Street was resurfaced and the trolley track taken out. At one time (an old Chinese man told me) the tunnels ran to Fairview & Curtis to the west and to Barber Park to the east. As to the tunnels under the theatre?

Q: Why don't the Egyptian show more silent movies?

A: We try to show at least 2 silent movies per year. They are extremely expensive to obtain and produce and as of lately, not well attended. Hopefully this will change and we can do more.
