Hello Lost….

Ahhh, that is MUCH better. Always like to see something on the marquee. So that means they are open again. That is a good thing. I do hope that the place is in the right hands this time around. A couple years ago they had some financial botching and they closed for a while.

The only thing worse than a blank marquee is one that says “Closed”, “Out of Business”, and the infamous “Temporarily Closed” (a nod to the reverse side of the Styx Paradise Theatre album).

There was also a Ohio Theatre in Sandusky that I don’t see listed on CT, does anyone have information on the Ohio?

Also a Sandusky Theatre advertised in 1911 and onwards, but no other corroborating information seems to be available.

My great aunts were in vaudeville and played in Sandusky at the State Theatre. I believe it was the Schine’s State Theatre. This was in April, 1929.
