              “Springfield, Illinois - Easter on April 13, 1954 - The drive-in Sunrise Service at the Springfield Drive-In Theater attracted more than 3,800 people. They arrived in 975 cars, according to the organizers, a number that probably compared favorably to the turnout for movies on summer weekend evenings.”</p>

  • <p>It is of certainty that John Bunny comedies
              were screened at the Star Theatre,
              as his popularity was on the rise in 1914,
              until his death on April 26, 1915, at aged 51.
              “The Pickwick Papers”, and “Bunny Dips Into Society”,
              are two popular titles from 1913, and it likely
              that they were screened at the Star Theatre,
              before it’s closure (1919?).</p>
