I’m writing a book about the history of Bridgeport for Arcadia Publishing and would LOVE a picture or two of the Wallace.
Please contact me if you have any of the Wallace or any Bridgeport theaters (I have the Ramova, The Milda and The Eagle (1991), but would love to see any and all shots of the 12-13 theaters that used to be in the neighborhood.
On a really sad note, Nancy of Nancy’s Best Little Hair House passed away his past week. The Wallace theater building has been for sale for the last few months too.
Look forward to hearing from you.

This theater is in the rear section of the four-story building at this site that doesn’t look at all theatrical. It was a hall before becoming a theater.
A Kilgen theater organ opus 3622 size 2/3 style U05 was installed in the Metropole Theater in 1926.
