Originally began life as a drive-in theatre. It was later an adult theatre, which continues today, now using another part of the facility (the drive-in section is now closed).

Drove past this place but didn’t go in. Not sure if its gay or straight.
Is this theater still open? I found the following on a website:
“Theatair-X, on State Highway 31 in Clarksville, Ind., is about to be ripped down so they can build a new interchange for I-65. Isn’t that the same Theatair-X that has been charged with obscenity many times, fined as much as $25,000 at a time, taken to court six times, and constantly hassled by anti-porno groups, police and the prosecuting attorney of Clark County? What a coincidence! Here’s what Richard Dickman, president of the Town Council, had to say: "It just seemed like the logical place for the intersection”.
The President of the town council is named Dickman??? LOL
“mikethesnipe,” since you “drove past this place but didn’t go in,” how do we know that the address is correct? Were you driving with one hand and writing the address down with the other? And if you had known definitely whether the place was “gay or straight,” would you have gone in?
‘warrenthewimp’ feel free to verify the address of Theatair X. You will find that the address is accurate. Unlike the incorrect addresses given on many theatre listings by you fella; this address is correct. I do not patronize porn theatres. I also do not discriminate against them as you do. haha
I grew up in Jeffersonville and passed this site frequently. This was in fact a former drive in movie theater. In the late 1970’s, the owners converted the venue to a adult movie theater and opened an adult bookstore in the former snack bar. Local civic leaders did bring obscenity charges and frequently tried to close the place. At one point, the property was surrounded by a 25' privacy fence to keep the presentations and viewers, private.
The growth of Clarksville, Jeffersonville, and Sellersburg on all sides of it would have doomed this venue regardless of what it was showing. The vicious nature of small town politics, only adds to the manner in which it was apparently taken by immenent domain.
Not sure if this theater will still exist in a few years or not, but if it must be known it does have two screens showing pornographic material 24/ 7, I was one of the first of my group of friends to turn 18 and was, well put up to the task of checking it out and giving them the inside scoop. Two screens, maybe 60 seats each, and sticky floors. You wont be gettin' popcorn in this theater, but hey if thats your thing, it don’t bother me.
THIS THEATER IS STILL OPEN, maybe not the drive in part. But yes it is open, and the did not make the on ramp there. Nor are they going too. They built an on and off ramp on the other side of the road.

Hello all,
I am doing a large-scale research project on adult theatres and would be very interested to hear from anything who either worked at or attended this theatre during its time showing adult films. If you would like to help me out, you can email me at .
Thanks!
