"Welcome to the web site for the Historic Spreckels Theatre. I have always believed that the Spreckels Theatre needs to provide an elegant setting to feature the many and varied theatrical needs of San Diego, whether we present opera, a play, a musical, a concert, jazz, comedy, or a live event. We are guided by our dedication to present excellence in the theatre arts, now in 2008, as we have done for nearly 100 years! Enjoy the Show."

Jacquelyn Littlefield - Owner & Operator

The Historic Spreckels Theatre opened on August 23rd, 1912. Since that time this magnificent 1464 seat theatre has played host to San Diego's finest attractions, first as a vaudville house, then a movie palace of the motion picture hey-day and now as a live presentation venue.
