I believe this was also known as the Movie Palace, the address is 3322 Georgia St.
This two-story theatre was located downtown and was empty for many years. It was starting to be used again in the mid-late 80’s for plays and musicals but it burned to the ground. It was later replaced by a Casey’s General Store which has also been shuttered and remodeled into a restaurant. The Movie Palace is a video rental store located in a strip mall on the western end of town.
In 1963, the Clark was operated by the Armentrout Circuit, Russell Armentrout, president and general manager. Besides the Clark, Armentrout also operated the Clark in Shelbina, MO, the Zoe in Pittsfield, IL and the Clark Drive-In in Summer Hill, IL.
