Miami's Olympia Theater has decades of history. Share your best memories with us
Miami officials are considering turning over control of the historic Olympia Theater, which was built in 1926, to the Sports Leadership Arts Management public charter school in Little Havana, also known as SLAM.
The vote to decide the fate of the venue, on Flagler Street in downtown Miami, was delayed Thursday following criticism of the potential deal.
The theater, which also was known as the Gusman Center for the Performing Arts from the mid-1970s to 2014, has hosted a wide range of artists and events, including Elvis Presley, B.B. King, Jimmy Buffett and the Miami Film Festival.
