The Savoy Theater at 658 Fifth Avenue first opened its doors as the Rivoli Theatre in 1923. The 327-seat house survived numerous management changes throughout the years. It has been known as the The Diana, The Roxy, The Savoy, Bijou Theatre, Cinema XXX, and Pussycat. The building was restored as part of the Gaslamp Quarter preservation and is now a restaurant.
