The Charles Theater, often referred to as simply the Charles, is the oldest operating movie theater in Baltimore. The theater is a Beaux-Arts building designed as a streetcar barn in 1892 by Jackson C. Gott, located in what is now the Station North arts and entertainment district. The theater was re-named the Charles (for its location on Charles Street) circa 1959 and became a calendar revival house in 1979. Many of John Waters's early films premiered at this theater.
