MORE MEMORIES,One thing I recalled just the other day that when we were slow in business and were bored I would explore the building, in the catwalks above the house and behind the screen there were some stairs going up the the second floor which had a door that was never locked,anyone could have gone up there if they knew about it.Maybe because Crescent Amusement built and owned the building there was just stuff stored up there,the motor for the A/C Compressor and in one corner was a “Roulette Wheel” and I mean one like you would see in Las Vegas, pretty big, you could tell that it had been there for a long time because of the dust on it,but It was real nice, I showed it to several fellows who said we should snag it,we never did though,I wonder if it was still there when the theatre was torn down.Any one could had brought it down the steps and out the loading dock behind the screen.It was ther for years.
Thats funny Mike now that I look at the Officer and a Gentelman photo, the Silver Nova parked near the box office was my car. I was not working there then, I was managing apartments by then, but I would still hang out at the complex at the pool hall or the bar that was in the center.1977 Nova was a pretty cool car,wish I still had it.
The Theatre Hisorical Socity Reader book reports that this theatre is closed to the fall of 2011 for more renovations.Wedding and events will still be held in the lobby.
