fyfas, I remember you. Donnie Ferguson and I worked for WZAT in ‘73 & 74 and was a Tour Guide at Universal in '78 and saw you and we went to lunch in the commissary. My reason for looking up this site is a dispute with the Theater being called the “the longest continuously operating"live performance theatre”. I tell my guests it was a movie theatre when I grew up and live Theatre was the Savannah Little Theatre in the original Savannah Golf Club. and moved to that location when that building burned. The phone # on the marquee was the same as it was at the old location some 40+ years ago. I still see little Albert, (not so little anymore) and he lives in the same house as his Dad in Bacon Park. I point out the old Weis Theatre that now says SCAD and tell people it was WEIS and he owned, as I recall about 30 movie Theatre’s in Ga. and where I started my business career at his radio station next door in 1973.
