When the theater first opened, it was staffed largely by students from Mount Tabor Junior-Senior High School like me. I watched many movies there and never remember paying full admission price.

Camel City Cleaners sponsored some of the Saturday morning shows in the 1960s. When it did, admission was twenty-five cents or five wire coat hangers. I brought coat hangers.

There used to be houses across Robinhood Road from the theater. The lots were well above the road and offered excellent views of the screen. I watched several films form my girlfriend’s front yard in the 1960s.

My grandfather, Dr. John E. Davis, had his medical office “over” the theater in the 1930s.
