The State Theatre has served Portland in several roles: it began as a movie house and became a concert venue only after a major renovation and reopening in 2010.
A venue with several chapters
Opened in 1929 as a first-run cinema, the State Theatre showed movies for about three decades before adding theatrical and dance performances. From 1963 to 1990, it was leased as an adult-film venue. Renovations led to a 1993 reopening, but the aging building later closed again in 2006.
The Bowery Presents invested $1.5 million in another renovation, and the theatre reopened in 2010 as a concert venue. That history gives Blue October’s Congress Street date a local context: the building’s current role is one of several uses it has taken on, not the one it was built for.
