you want show/exibit old/classic movies in a single screen theater? Who is going to be there on a Tuesday night, in the winter? If you are in a warmer part of the country, how you gonna pay for the air conditioning, how you gonna pay for projection repairs if you need them? You gonna charge $1.50 to $2.00 to see these classics? Don’t forget the cost of gas to get to the theater-and maybe parking? Add these all up, then repeat after me-NETFLIX. Wish you luck, you will need it.

Been there, done that.

this theater was gutted completely to make a mini-mall. It used to be directly across the street from Lou’s bar, I think it was Filbert Street. Hard to tell that a theater was even on Walnut street!
