Jersey Shore Hurricane News had an article that this theatre is scheduled to close due to the Frank Theatre bankruptcy.

I took my seven year old niece to see “Pocahontas” at the Towne in the mid 1990s. It was a matinee in the middle of the summer. I think every kid in Atlantic County was at the theater that afternoon. It was a zoo.

I saw War of the Worlds here a few years back, and can still remember how great the sound was for such an old theater. The picture was horrible, though.

I remember when it was the Towne Twin. It opened in Oct. 1969. The booth had Super Simplex & Peerless arc lamps. It was the first time I saw automated change overs. I must have watched Easy Rider a thousand times! It became the Towne 4 in 1973. That was the first time I ran platters. Below is a pic I took in September 1978. The next day the peeless came out to be replaced with Christe Xenolites. The sound system was University 35 watt mono.
