Peninsula Community Theatre

Viewing: Photo | Street View

The Village Theatre opened in 1935 in Hilton Village. It was done in Art Deco style. It closed as a movie theatre in the early-1990’s. In 1994 it became the Peninsula Community Theatre for the Performing Arts. It still maintains its original marquee.

While I know I’ve likely seen more than a couple movies here, I remember seeing Star Wars here with some friends.

I was clueless, along for the fun of it, with a friend’s parents driving us. So I just walked into the Village not knowing what was playing or that it was this big blockbuster movie. Cool surprise …

Very nicely designed theatre. The theatre was closed on the day I was in town so the only part of the interior I could see was what was visible from the front door. The lobby is small with what appears to be the original concession stand still in place. Exterior photos from February 2011:
