Opened by ABC Mid-South Theatres on June 27, 1969 with “True Grit” and a live musical performance by New Orleans folk group “The New Departure”. It was later operated by Gulf State Theatres, then Gulf International, then United Artists, and finally independently, until closure on July 27, 1996 with special showings of “Gone With The Wind”, “The Last Supper” and “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”.
