About the Valencia Theatre
In the Queens neighborhood of Jamaica, at 165-11 Jamaica Avenue, stands the Valencia Theatre (formerly Loew's Valencia Theatre), a church that was once a theater. John Eberson designed it as a movie palace, and on January 11, 1929, it opened as part of a group of five Loew's Wonder Theatres around New York. A congregation called Tabernacle of Prayer for All People has used it since 1977, and the city has designated it a landmark.
The L-shaped site has a lobby section and an auditorium. Spanish and Mexican Baroque decoration marks the lobby section, which has an elaborate facade of brick and terracotta with a marquee and ornate finials. Seating for 3,500 is split between two levels, and the proscenium arch, walls and ceilings are lavishly decorated. Like the other Wonder Theaters, it had a "Wonder Morton" pipe organ from the Robert Morton Organ Company, which has since been removed.
Eberson designed only three atmospheric theaters in New York City: the Valencia, the Paradise and the Lane Theater on Staten Island. Loew's Theatres leased the venue, which first presented films and live shows. It closed in June 1977 because of high costs and low attendance, and the Tabernacle of Prayer took it over for a nominal fee, spending $250,000 on renovations before moving in during October 1977.
