Hey! You Guys are Great. JON GEN told me to vote for you, please head over to local bands and return the favor by voting for him. good luck!
The DFT is a perfect end to an evening. This architectural jewel, fully restored to its 1927 grandeur, is a visual feast. The elegant Crystal Gallery Cafe, a ballroom on the second floor, is a low-key place to unwind with a glass of wine before a show... or coffee and a delectable dessert. The shows range from classic to independent, including fabulous documentaries. Keep your eye on the schedule, because you'll be sure to find a film that's right up your alley. Enjoy!
Always pulling together a great season. And the new seats or soooo comfy! The place looks unbelievable.
Since the reconstruction a couple years ago, this theatre has gone from nice to gorgeous! The old wooden chairs have been replaced with very comfortable seating, and the original architecture is simply splendid. I've seen films and musical performances there, and have been most pleased.
Historic, beautiful theatre offering wide variety of films. Always something of interest!
The DFT shows the best of documentaries and foreign films. I've been going for years.
The best kept secret in the Metro Detroit area. Thank you DIA and DFT for keeping this venue alive.
Just the best. What can I say? Check it out for yourself. This is a part of the D's history.
It's my favorite place to be! It is so beautiful and peaceful. Truly a work of art with a great selection of films.
