The Hardacre Theatre, located in the small town of Tipton (pop. 3054), originally opened as an opera house in 1916, but just three years later, it began to show motion pictures.
The Art Deco style house was renovated in 1991 and movies are now shown at the theater six nights a week. The theater is locally owned and operated. It was closed in August 2013.
