About the Club
Ruby Skye’s exquisitely appointed facility was built in the 1890s and is a historical landmark that formerly housed the Stage Door Theatre. A turn-of-the-century Victorian playhouse restored with all the high-tech accoutrements, Ruby Skye’s interiors were designed by Pamela Pennington Studios and present a striking juxtaposition between its original Art Nouveau architecture and its plush modern furnishings. The club is ideally located in the heart of downtown San Francisco, just off Union Square and the famed theatre district.
