The community of Pasadena boasts a rich and vibrant history.  Through the end of the 1920's, Pasadena continued to enjoy a reputation as a tourist center and winter resort for the wealthy. The city had much to offer culturally; the Pasadena Community Playhouse was incorporated in 1917 and moved to the new Pasadena Playhouse in 1925.
