For almost 36 years I have heard about the “Marlboro” Theater from my husband and his family. Found this site and realized the correct name is Marbro! This is the first time we have ever seen a picture of the theater. Nice to learn more of the theater’s history and people’s memories! Around 1963 my husband’s parents purchased several hundred sq. feet of tennesse red marble that came from the lobby of the Marbro. They and their 5 children spent a couple of weeks tearing up the marble. They still remember how much work/time was involved! It has been stacked and moved several times over the years. Some day we may find a use for it!
We also have a gargoyle from the lobby or maybe the balcony? We would love to hear from anyone that remembers the marble or the gargoyle(s?)…or knows of any pictures of the interior that would show the marble or the gargoyle.
