Miles Memorial Playhouse050

Miles Memorial Playhouse is located in Christine Emerson Reed Park. The building, constructed in 1929, was donated by former City Councilman, J. Euclid Miles for a "public recreation hall for the young men and women of the city," and dedicated to the memory of his theater-loving daughter, Mary A. Miles.

Designed in the Spanish Colonial revival style, the building is a City landmark eligible for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places.

After the Northridge quake, the Playhouse was completely re-built and re-dedicated to its original purpose of providing quality, youth appropriate performing arts events by professional, non-profit organizations. In fact, it will only rent space to companies producing theater appropriate for children to watch, so it's always safe bringing the kids to a show at The Miles!
