As a child, my father and mother would take me to the movies at The State theater, a grand movie house replete with balcony seating and grand architecture. These old single screen theaters can't compete with the multiplexes and no one thinks of urban Los Angeles as a destination. So as part of its redevelopment many old movie houses have been renovated as churches. Once a month the city of Los Angeles conservancy gives paid tours of some of L.A.'s grandest theaters.
