News About This Theater
- Sep 13, 2014 — New life for small-town theaters
This was the second State Theatre to operate in Larned. State Theatre originally opened on April 6, 1949 with Fred MacMurray in “Father Was a Fullback”. It is the only theatre in this small town of 4,200 residents.
After being closed for two years, the old cinema reopened in early July 2002 with a theatre full of volunteers running the show. The theatre was recently renovated and its famous neon marquee is still being repaired with plans to reinstall it in the near future.
