I watched my first movie here. I think it was Zebra In The Kitchen. I remember meeting Santa during intermission or after a movie in the mid-60s. My mother worked at the concession stand and we would get in for free which, with 9 kids, was a real savings. She let me see Night of The Living Dead with my brother Tom. I was so scared that I hid behind the big wall at the back and eventually went to the lobby, where the older kids who were waiting for the 2nd show laughed because I was almost in shock. Tom took me to the ice cream shoppe next door to calm me down. I remember a man named Bruce took tickets.

All I remember about this theater is that I saw my first movie there – Mary Poppins. In my teen years, long after it had closed, I was told by many people that it was not uncommon to see rats run across the floor during the show.
