teecee commented about Jefferson Drive-In on Mar 30, 2005 at 3:36 pm

Per Drive-Ins.com, now a junkyard. They list it as the “Twin East”.
From the title, I would correct the number of screens to 2.

Is there a balcony in this theater? All three screens are on the auidtorium level (two smaller in the rear and one larger in the front), but this place looks like it has or had a balcony at one time.

Did you guys get in on Good Friday? I will take your advice on the tour. I went to a show at the Loews in the fall and at the time didn’t know about the tours of the Stanley. Oh well, another road trip.
