Kirk who ran this theater from 1992 – 1995 was going to triplex it.
He had everything ready to do; however before work was to start Danbarry made news of them coming in 1996.
Kirk could not afford the current rent to stay open. The sad thing is he gave up on it before it closed.
He opened two failed Pizza Shops. One up the road from Flicker, which closed very fast. The other was Rudy’s named after his favorite movie at the time.
His time at the pizza shops left to mismanagement at the Flicker. Simco who took over the Flicker and renamed it Movie Palace were paying only $1,000 for rent.
And in the last seven months paid nothing, this is however mostly because they took over Beaver Valley 6 because the lease from Sony was up and the land lord wanted Beaver Valley to stay open.
But if Kirk would have had a rent deal like Simco for just $1,000 a month it may have been saved.
But Kirk had loyal patrons that may have stuck with Flicker even with Danbarry but when Kirk left it to go on to the pizza shops it was closed long before Apollo 13’s last credits rolled.
