The Green Hills Theatre opened on July 19, 1951 by Crescent Amusement Co. The first movie was Ronald Reagan in “Bedtime for Bonzo”. It was located in Hillsboro Road next to the Green Hills Market. The theatre featured two party rooms and a cry room.
Martin Theatres took over operations of the Green Hills Theatre in January 1961. The theatre closed in June 1978 with Richard Dreyfuss in “American Graffiti”. It was demolished later in 1978.
