Here is the web site of the Princess Theatre in LeRoy, Illinois. The history section has a vintage photo of the theater.
Yes, the Princess is still open but it looks as if it shows movies only Friday through Sunday. Unfortunately, today it’s one of only a very few open businesses in Leroy.
Here’s another one of my pictures of the Princess:

It’s great to hear you are keeping the Princess going. It’s too bad I wasn’t near by, I would love to operate that jewel. I had asked the previous owner if I could operate it for him. I briefly owned the Princess Theatre back in the 80’s. It seemed after I bought it, everything just went wrong, and I never had a chance to get her up and going. I had some big plans. I do have the original blueprints, though. They are really brittle. I would like to preserve them. I had always wanted to restore one of those original projectors, though, but just never got the chance. I wish you the VERY BEST of luck, and if I can help, calling upon my 20+ years of exhibition experience, please do. It’s been a lifetime labor of love for me, and I love to see that others share it. Keep LeRoy’s big silver smile, smiling!
Photos and more info. coming soon!
The Princess theatre was bought by my father in November of 2006. We had someone running the Theatre until July 30, 2007 when they backed out. Now our family runs the Theatre.
Anybody know if the Princess has been sold, or what?
