I was driving by the Paradise the other day and I noticed 3 men wearing painting clothes standing outside. I know that Jim Rankin’s posted comment from Dec. 2004 said it was sold and to remain a religious operation, but I just wanted to know if anyone knows anything else about the renovation effort? Is there any hope for it to become a theater again??
I spent almost every weekend at the paradise theater in my high school days. I was, and still am, devistated upon its closing. It is such a beautiful and historic building in an area that is severely lacking in beauty and not taking steps to restore its history. I recently sat in on a church service that is being held there now. It made me very sad.
It is time for Peter Agnos, or somebody with the proper authority, to bring the paradise back to life. The last thing West Allis needs is a new Taco Bell/Long John Silver on the corner of Hawley and Greenfield when the Paradise theater remains closed. Tell me what I
can do to help. I will be the first volunteer.
p.s. What ever happened to Charlie??
