According to a Maine tourism website, this is a 1930s movie theater with working player piano.

Excellent find, considering the proliferation of “classic” 1990s mall theaters being posted recently.

As promised, here is the color photo and interesting article on the history of this theater.

teecee commented about Beach Theatre on Jan 25, 2005 at 2:35 pm

Original comment should read “western”. My apologies. It is easy to forget that Florida has two coasts.

Here is the homepage for the Trinity Square Repertory Theater:

If you click on “about us” and then “Lederer Theater” you’ll find the entire history of the theater.

teecee commented about Brook Arts Center on Jan 25, 2005 at 12:52 pm

I did some research on the state register of historic places. Not many theaters listed, although some are in downtown zones designated as state historic districts. The Brook, however, has its own listing.

See page 2. Hopefully this means that the state will do all it can to assure proper preservation.

teecee commented about Princeton Garden Theatre on Jan 24, 2005 at 8:52 am

Not exactly the picture that I was looking for, here is a link to a fairly recent b&w photo before the restoration.

There are many articles in the local Princeton press about the theater, just finding the one with the nice color photo is proving to be a challenge.
