Can’t believe it is almost 30 years since this theater opened! A good friend and I watched The Bodyguard (Houston/Costner) when it opened in 1992 at this theater — one of the first films shown. The Bodyguard will be limited-released on 11/6 & 11/9 2022. Then, the Houston biopic, I Wanna Dance With Somebody, open 12/23/2022. Full circle. Wish it is still open to watch it here.

Just found out from a friend who lives out that way, this theatre is in the process of being demolished.
