Opened in 1942 as Charleston’s premiere movie house, The American Theater’s roots are regal Art-Deco architecture and timeless Hollywood glamour. Today, The American is a stylish and sophisticated event venue, worthy of red carpets and dazzling marquees.

Framed faces from Hollywood’s Golden Age and vintage movie posters recall this National Historic Landmark’s early days. A luxurious Grand Ballroom with handmade milk-glass chandeliers is a stunning set for life’s great scenes. A quintessential cinema with stadium seating is picture-perfect for private screenings or corporate meetings – and the intimate Stars Lounge is a divine backdrop for flappers, physicians and philanthropists.
