Baldwin Theatre (San Francisco). Built on Market Street in 1875 by the celebrated San Francisco gambler and entrepreneur Elias Jackson “Lucky” Baldwin as Baldwin's Academy of Music, it quickly became the principal rival to the
California Theatre. The older house remained the home of a distinguished resident ensemble, while the Baldwin, designed by Sumner Bugbee, emphasized touring stars and attractions. In 1878 Baldwin built a magnificent hotel, which encompassed the playhouse and occupied the rest of the block. Virtually all the great touring performers of the day appeared in their best‐known vehicles at the house. Thomas
Maguire and young Charles
Frohman were among its managers. Both hotel and theatre were destroyed by fire in 1898.
