The Playhouse Theater opened in the 1920’s and by 1941 was part of the small Martina Circuit. It was closed by Schine Theaters in 1963. It was demolished in 1975.

Back in the 1970s, I wrote a Hoffman paper on movie theaters in Wayne County, and, at that time, there were still folks around that remembered the Playhouse. I only remember it when we drove by it in the 1970s, and, by that time, it had been closed for quite a while. It was eventually torn down and there are photos online of the demolition. There are also a few photos from the 50s online, but I am wondering if anyone has any photos of the interior of the theater. I have only seen one. Also, I am wondering if the theater ever converted to wide screen in the 1950s.
BTW, the theater wasn’t torn down until 1975.
Mark could you provide links to the online items to which have referred?
This was a George Eichenlaub-designed theatre.
