The Wiltern
3790 Wilshire Boulevard | Los Angeles, California 90005
Originally built in 1931, the Wiltern was designed by architect Stiles O. Clements of
Morgan, Walls & Clements, the city’s oldest architectural firm. The Wiltern Theatre was
originally designed as a vaudeville theater and initially opened as the Warner Brothers
Western Theater, the flagship for the theater chain. Quickly closing a year later, the
theater reopened in the mid-1930s and was renamed the Wiltern Theatre for the major
intersection which it faces (Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue).
Clad in a blue-green terra-cotta tile and situated on a diagonal to the street corner, the
Wiltern is considered one of the finest examples of Art Deco architecture in the United
States. The most dramatic element of the design is the sunburst on the ceiling of the
auditorium, with each ray its own Art Deco skyscraper—G. Albert Lansburgh’s vision of
the future of Wilshire Boulevard.
