This image and several others in the photos are not the Colonial Twin. You’ll note that the ads that say Colonial Twin say it was in Hendersonville. It did start out as a single and added an additional screen later. I remember seeing it in the 80s. There is a good pic of the drive-in in the photos here.
The Colonial was at OHB and Gallatin rd. It was a different theatre.
I found a couple pics of the Princess but cannot find a listing. When I search for it, this is the theatre that comes up. Should I post them here or just throw them out?
@TomMc11 That is not the Drive In sign. That sign was left behind when the Hills department store abandoned. the building on the NW side of the lot was the location of the department store in the 1980s.
I am looking for photos of this theatre. If you can help me, please email me at cjpendley at iCloud or PM me on FB. I am trying to write a Donelson TN history book.

i caught a guitar pick at the Rossington Collins Band Anytime, Anyplace, Anywhere concert, on Jun 27, 1980. it was a great show
whats the story on that bus?
i saw several concerts here in the 70s/early 80s. i wish i had known how special that was at the time.
there is a six screen still open in atlanta. its called the Starlite
i posted this exact photo here with a completely different caption. mine said the photo was the new theatre. hmmmmmm
I thought the paramount became the midtown at the end of its run.
Don’t see many of these inside shots

Way out in the country in 1957.
I don’t think this is the Twin.
I wish I had had the foresight to photograph these theatres. I did get the Sumner’s sign but should have driven in and got the whole thing.
This is the Colonial Twin near Hendersonville.
The newer theater was built in 1973. I have a pic from 1999, shortly before it was demolished. I’ll post it here.
I don’t think she likes Dr Clitterhouse very much.
