It was established in [[1988]]. Hosts plenty of events, many of which students can attend for free or at steeply discounted rates. For some reason the insist on charging Columbia organizations a crapload of money to use it. So they end up using the less performance-friendly [[Roone Arledge Auditorium]]. The acoustics are mediocre anyway.	+	The '''Kathryn Bache Miller Theatre''' is a 688-seat proscenium-style theater inside [[Dodge Hall]], and is entered from Broadway on the corner of 116th Street.

-Prior to it's rebirth in 1988, Miller Theatre was originally known as the McMillin Academic Theater, in honor of [[Dodge Hall]]'s donor. McMillin seated an audience of 1,000 and had a smaller stage than Miller. [[Schuyler Chapin]] recalled his first trip into McMillin in [[1976]], when he took over as dean of the [[School of the Arts]]: "The chairs were falling apart, the stage was terrible, and when it rained, water ran down the center aisle. I said, 'You've got to be kidding.' But McMillin had a lot of history to it, so I really wanted to have it redone. Of course, when I first proposed doing that, I was given 89 reasons why it couldn't be done, the essential one being that there was no money." Chapin was able to secure a $1 million grant from the Kathryn and Gilbert Miller Fund along with donations from [[trustees]] to fund a $3 million renovation that was completed in 1988.
