This organ is one of 5 surviving 4 manual Wurlitzer Theater Specials, originally built in the 1920s and installed in Boston, now completely restored and built into a privately owned home specifically designed to house the organ. It is located in Gig Harbor, Washington, overlooking the south Puget Sound and Mt. Rainier. This recital was to benefit Gilda's Club, a national charity supporting facilites for the free counceling and housing of cancer patients undergoing treatment and their families. Organist: Andy Crowe, a frequent player at Pizza and Pipes before it was destroyed by fire.

  • If we keep taking these instruments out of public view and installing them in private venue's, we are sure to doom them.

    How many people had to be exposed to the Theatre Organ just to get one person interested in its' artistry? Thousands, I imagine.

  • I've known Andy and the PSTOS group for many years!!  It's great to see him still playin' away! This building is such a wonderful installation! I hope someday to put in something like this so it can be saved from destruction and so all can enjoy the splendor of the Theater organ! I've been blessed to be able to play the Mighty Wurlitzer myself!

  • I have been listening to Andy Crowe since the early' 70's and am delighted to see this post. I first saw him with Rodgers touring group the Worth/Crowe duo, and was fortunate enough to hear Andy play several times at different places in the Pac NW. Keep em flying Andy!
