We have a theater in Patchogue. After its restoration the town was restored around it.

Does anybody know what will be playing in the old Sunrise Indoor this weekend? I don’t, and I would like to see it again.

In retrospect, maybe I should’ve added to the note before that you guys seem to be putting up a real fight for the Beekman. Kudos

Savethesutton;
If there aren’t I can find you another theater to help. I’m part of the group that wants to reopen one in Brooklyn. I can give you information on that. No offense to the Beekman People, but it’s larger.

Well, I just got my new ride. I should be able to make it. The question is when will Bruce 1 be ready?

I know that there are some people on this page who know what I am doing with the Loew’s Kings, another wonder theater like the Jersey. I just figured some of you may want to join us.

I think they should make it a drive in again. What do you all think?

Since that posting moments ago I have E-Mailed other theaters that, according to this site, were designed by Rapp and Rapp. They were the Loew’s Jersey, Al Ringling, and Adler Theaters. I will keep you posted.

Guys;
Here is the latest on the Raymond. I contacted them, let’s see what happens. Will they contact me back? That’s the important question. If they don’t, will any of you be willing to also try and contact them?

It stands somewhere around there, but I think it became the development for modern housing. You know, the type that may fall on you if you sneeze.

I will try to contact the Raymond Theatre again. By the way, maybe we should just call it the Brooklyn Kings Performing Arts Center. Of course I don’t know, but if you put their name in some people may think you’re pandering.

Guys;
I don’t think that now is the time to look at vandalism happened in the past. We need to look at the Kings’s Future. What are we to do with it if and when it reopens, and I believe it will reopen? Also, how do we get to the reopening phase?

You may want to do a theater search on this site for the Raymond Theater in Pasadena. Their url is listed on the page. I passed your on to them, but I don’t think they got in touch over the passed few months since. There is a California Promoter who may be interested in our idea.

What about the Loews Jersey? Do you think that would be a good idea? They are another “wonder theater” and restored to operation.

Do they have a picture of the Kings in that Applebee’s?

I did research and some Rapp and Rapp Theaters are on the National Register for their architecture. That chances for the Kings getting landmark status are two to one.

What if we contacted other societies? Who would be the best to bring into the fold? I believe the Theater Historical Society is already in.

Everybody listen up! We need to get together somehow. I am willing to take the risk of meeting someone from the internet for this. Outside of this forum and E-Mail, Bruce 1 and I only spoke on the phone. I’m willing to possibly take the risk of meeting him. Are there any other takers?

Well, I guess there goes the old Sunrise Altogether. This is the first I heard of the place becoming houses. (Personally I would say they should put back up the drive in screen)

Name the time and place and I will be there. If you wish to only do so be e-mail please say so on this page. Some people don’t want to place their schedule in a public forum while others do. I can tell you right now the easiest time for me will be after May 31. This way I am sure my classes and tests are over.

I recall reading about you before our first E-Mail contact. My guess is that you will probably know people at other stations having been around broadcasting as long as you have. If you speak to them, maybe they will be willing to interview you. I’m getting a new car. My old one would not make it from exit 62 on the Long Island Expressway to Brooklyn. I may be able to go in and take some stills and video of the Kings at present. However, you are the one who is involved professionally in the media. My cameras may be old, but I’m willing to help.

Damn, I won’t be able to see it! Too bad for me.
