Further down Tremont, you come across the two big volume houses. First you reach the Sack Savoy, with its capacity of 2,800. A false front enables the Savoy to straddle the entire block in order to maintain an entrance on both Tremont and Washington Streets. It attracts a varied audience. With a film like its Christmas attraction, Valley of the Dolls, the Tremont side draws from the slightly vulgar matrons.
