Located in the Englewood Square Shopping Center. It was also known as the Cinema 1 & 2 Rocking Chair Theatres at Englewood Square. Opening in March 1972 as Rocky Mount’s first-ever indoor twin cinema under Charlotte based Stewart and Everett Corporation. Carmike took over operations of the Englewood 1 & 2 in the mid-1980’s until it’s closing in the late-1990’s.

Stewart and Everett also had another twin cinema that operated in the town…one of two theatres that were in Rocky Mount. One was the Englewood Twin,aka Cinema 1 & 2,and the other was the Oakwood Twin which is NOT listed on this site that opened around 1975 or 1976.
Twin cinemas,Built right were Nice.
This was my first theatre as manager. Later opened Oakwood twin in 1977. Stewart & Everett Theatres were bought by Carmike Cinemas in 1986. Would like to hear from anyone that worked at these theatres in the 70’s and early 80’s.
Both the Englewood and Oakwood Cinemas were demolished and replaced by banks (Wachovia-now Wells Fargo-replaced the Englewood and Southern Bank replaced the Oakwood).
