Twin Peak Theatre

Viewing: Photo | Street View

Opened as the Peak Theatre in 1915. Recently remodeled and twinned. The Twin Peak features independent and foreign films, and the theatre now has a wine bar in the lobby. It also screens some select mainstream films.

A colorfully Art Deco exterior with a very large marquee. Miles of neon light up the front at night. Nice vertical sign with “Peak” in colorful neon.

Have great memories of this classic place from my teen years, I remember that in late 70’s early 80’s they rarely got the big hits, losing out to the Cooper 3, or the Ute 70 usually. I recall at one time the marquis reading an X rated feature,“Catherine & Co” but I think for no more than a week. The last seats in the balcony felt miles away from the screen if you got stuck there as we did for a really bad flick called “Dirty Tricks” w/Kate Jackson & Elliot Gould (I think) Still a few great Rocky Horror Midnight Movie memories. Glad that now they can show top of the line non-commercial features.Hope it stays around for decades more.

It now has three screens. Upstairs offices were converted into the third screen.
