The Roxy Theatre opened in the mid-1930’s in a Neo-Classical style with seating listed at 1,090. It was located across the street from the county courthouse and a half block from the smaller Wallace Theatre.

The Roxy Theatre went through various owners, Gregory Theatres, 1940’s Lucas Theatre Circuit, 1960’s Alliance Theatres and finally in the 1970’s by Cinecom.

The building is still in use as the Peru Event Center.

Unfortunately this theatre was torn down in the 1970’s. I grew up in this community and visit as often as possible and all that is there now is a vacant lot.
