The Lawrence Theater in the 1950’s was a lot of fun. 25 cent Saturday matinees, with films like “Forbidden Planet” and “Invaders from Mars”—which were scary to a 10 year old kid! I remember walking home from there to our house on Wallace Street (near State) on late fall afternnon with lots of leaves all over the street and long shadows, and spooked by those Sci-Fi B-films. Hah! Nice memories—too bad the place went away.
