Raymond Theatre (formerly Perkins Palace) is an auditorium located in Pasadena, California, built around 1921. It was known as Perkins Palace when it was a live music venue from 1979 through 1991. In addition to being a popular music venue, it was featured in several films and music videos during the 1980s.
A group known as Friends of the Raymond Theatre, including promoter Gina Zamparelli, has advocated keeping the Raymond Theatre as a performing arts venue.
Gary Folgner lost control of the building in November 1991, following missed payments and a dispute with a supplier of upholstery fabric.
