i just love the idea people out there still care enough for these buildings and are willing to stand up to the regals and amcs and keep the little guy rolling
I am fundraising and looking for a theater to buy, manage, occupy, lease, or rent in the Los Angeles area to continue the 50 year legacy of my parents, whose theater was demolished, under color of law, by the Los Angeles Community Redevelopment Agency on my birthday in September 1998 — 10 years ago — I attempted to visit globx.com but there are no theatre listings there and the domain name is for sale. longislandmovies, please post a corrected url. Thanks.
The phone number to the theatre is 908-351-7575. It is located at 1148 East Jersey Street Elizabeth N.J. The man who was my contact no longer works there, but I,m sure someone can help you. Supposedly there is a myspace page for it also. Myspace.com Ritz Theatre Elizabeth. I hope you succeed. I have visiomned this place as a showplace for plays, movies and concerts since I first stepped back into it 3 years ago.
Hey CyNdi, regarding the Ritz in Elizabeth, I am a projectionist of 33 years as well as a stagehand. A bunch of us would love to see this place up and running again. It is in the center of downtown, and has a multi-story parking deck right next door to the theatre.
the ventnor twin down the south jersey shore, and the westmont in haddon twp nj are both sitting begging for some one to return them to there former glory…..and i just so happen to be a 6 year theater manager, projectionist who would love to chip in
Cyndi-lauper: I attempted to email you some pictures, but received a failure notice as the file was too large. I think I included about four pictures. So I will try it again with just two.

The Ritz Theatre in Elizabeth New Jersey is up for sale after undergoing major renovations. I know the projection room needs minor work, and the stage house is ready to support some road shows, concerts, plays etc.
Check Out the Joy Theatre in Mt. Joy, Lancaster County, PA and the Marietta Theatre in Marietta, Lancaster County, PA. Both are listed on this website. The Joy Theatre is for sale. It is in fairly decent shape considering it has not been used in over 40 years. The seats are gone, but the building has been maintained. Even the murals are still on the auditorium walls. I have pictures of the outside and inside of this theatre. The Marietta Theatre is currently being restored by the Historic Marietta Restoration Association. I know now that they are in the midst of that project, they still have no plans what they are going to do with the theatre when it is ready for use. Lancaster County is about 60 miles West of Philadelphia and only about 25 miles East of Harrisburg, the state capital. Either one would be an ideal candidate for operation.
I suppose it’s a long shot, but if you are the Cyndi Lauper I have idolized for years and you want to open a theatre I will come every day and clean and polish it for nothing. Cyndi rules!!!!!!
