History of The Fox Theatre
The Fox was designed in an eclectic blend of Asian decorative motifs referred to as “Siamese Byzantine”. Altogether a melting pot of Moorish, far Eastern, Egyptian, Babylonian, and Indian themes of various periods. The interior has been described as “awe-inspiringly fashioned after Mosques of Old India. It is bewildering in their richness and dazzling… striking a note that reverberates around the architectural and theatrical worlds.”
Straightaway in the grand lobby of the Fox, rows of flanked columns, reminiscent of the rock-cut Buddhist monastery halls, and the terrazzo lobby floor are covered with a crimson and gold chenille carpet imported from Czechoslovakia.
