| Studio 54 has had more name changes than any other theatre. It began life as Gallo's Opera House in 1927, and for many years was a legit house – until 1943, when CBS bought it, renamed it Studio 52 (referring to the order of purchase), and transformed it into a TV studio. I'm not sure of the pit was permanently filled in or not, at that time or when it became a nightclub in 1977. |
