The Warner Grand Theater in downtown San Pedro is an old art deco movie theater that has been partially restored to its former glory. They host a variety of community events and film screenings,and it is always a treat to see the classic architecture. The worst thing about the Grand is that the acoustics are none too great; I don't think it's the building, because the films usually sound OK, but any kind of live speaking invariably sounds muffled. Maybe they need a new PA, or perhaps just new microphones. Still, if you get a chance to see something there, take the opportunity.
