The theater closed sometime in the mid 90’s I believe. Patrons used to exit the two theaters to a small dimly lit area behind the two theaters to … socialize … with other patrons (ahem). The tiny restrooms were upstairs at the end of a narrow hall (nothing else upstairs, no balcony or anything). Wolfie’s closed March 30, 2008 BTW.

That must have been a hostile crowd for Che!. In the real Che’s native Argentina, audience members would throw motolov cocktails at the screen from their disgust of the film.

This opened as the Fine Arts in 1963 with Jewish Vaudeville and a movie. It slowly moved to burlesque and soft-core porn films and was the 21st Street theatre by 1969.
