The Park Theatre has been restored in the early 2000’s, after remaining dormant since 1984. A new group, The Preservation Through Performance Foundation, was recently formed to begin renovating and restoring the old 1920’s movie house. The plans include renovating the auditorium to seat 240 on the main floor and another 70 in the balcony. The theater may also add a 100-seat meeting room upstairs and dressing rooms and storage areas in the basement. The theater will become a performing arts and community center.

It states right on their website that the theater has recently been home to comedy troupes, bands, theatre productions, weddings, birthday parties, mystery dinners, and much more. Many theaters can be rented.
Here is a video clip of a band playing at the Park last March. I would turn the sound down or off before playing the clip:

This clip from youtube shows more of the interior, plus there’s an interesting discussion of the renovation:
