LugosiResearch commented about Queen Theater on Jun 3, 2016 at 6:06 pm

In recent research, I came across newspaper advertisements for Bela Lugosi’s “Horror and Magic Stage Show” which convened on the Queen Theater stage on Sunday March 18, 1951. On the off chance that one of the readers of this site may have attended the show, or may have a relative who attended and told them details about it, any information would be appreciated. I am doing ongoing research on Bela Lugosi and can be contacted at Thank you!

LugosiResearch commented about Capitol Theatre on Oct 13, 2015 at 2:33 pm

As an addendum to a post I made about Bela Lugosi at the Capitol Theater (see above), I have narrowed down the likely dates that he would have appeared in his vaudeville act on the Capitol Theater stage to Oct 16 and 17, 1948 or October 21 through 23, 1948. He also was interviewed on the local radio station of the time, I believe WSCR, while he was in town. If anyone can confirm this or has any solid information regarding this appearance, please contact me at Thanks!

As an addendum to a post I made earlier this year, according to old newspaper advertisements from the Plain Speaker, Bela Lugosi (Hollywood’s Dracula) appeared in a vaudeville act on the Feeley Theater stage on Mon, Tues and Wed October 18, 19 and 20 of 1948. If anyone out there has more information about his act, any photos from it or any family members who have memories of seeing it, please contact me at Thanks!

LugosiResearch commented about Buckingham Theater on Aug 16, 2011 at 9:50 am

I have some great memories of The Buckingham Theater. It was within walking distance of my parents home in Arlington Forest. I can remember them running Saturday kids shows during the summer months in the late Fifties or early Sixties. They’d have some cartoons, some Three Stooges shorts, a serial chapter and a feature. I can also remember the old days where you could pay once and stay through the film as many times as you wanted. A friend of mine went to see, I believe it was “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea” one winter… watched it, came out, it was snowing a blizzard, so we went back inside and watched it through again until the snow stopped. Great memories of this old theater! At least they didn’t tear it down!
