No one has favorited this theater yet

Great little theater that was located near the Courthouse Square. The Decatur Theatre was opened in 1940.

It was closed and demolished in the late-1970’s.

You did a nice job on the website. Too bad this theater is now a parking lot.

Saw Woody Allen’s “What’s Up, Tiger Lilly?” at the Decatur in 1966.
Funny how one remembers odd tidbits, isn’t it?
