Wake Forest, by Jennifer Smart, says that the Forest Theatre was on South White Street. There’s a photo (Google Books preview.) White Street is confirmed as the theater’s location by this page at the Wake Forest Fire Department’s web site, which says that the Forest Theatre was gutted by a fire on July 1, 1966.

This page from the Wake Forest Gazette says that the town has been without a movie theater since the Forest burned. It also says that the house opened as the Castle Theatre in 1927, and was renamed Forest Theatre in 1940.
