What's the story about The Playhouse Theatre at 4816 Main Street? It is a Houston Landmark Designation.  According to the city, it was built in 1950 and was the first permanent structure in the United States built specifically for professional “theatre-in-the-round.”

Did this supersede the Playhouse Theatre in the Texas Medical Center on South Main near the Houston Medical Towers designed by SOM? The Playhouse Theater was on South Main St. at Southgate Blvd.

I believe the Playhouse Theatre at 4816 Main Street is now a museum? Who recalls the history?
