A Contemporary Theatre, otherwise known as ACT, has been in operation since the summer of 1965. Located at the heart of downtown Seattle, the historic Eagles Auditorium Building played host to some pretty big names throughout the years. Martin Luther King Jr. gave a speech in the space on his only visit to Seattle, and bands such as Chicago, Pink Floyd, and Duran Duran have played the hall.
