A Storied History with a Modern Twist
Before Phantom Power became a thriving venue, it was originally a movie theatre showing foreign films, Oscar-worthy dramas, and indie favorites. Built in 1972 as The Skinni-Mini, and later renamed Point of View Cinema (1980-2013), the space maintained its iconic sloped floor—meaning no matter where you stand, you get a great view of the stage. Now updated with a mezzanine, bar, and modern sound system, Phantom Power brings together history and innovation for an unbeatable live music experience.
