The Tazwell Theatre opened on August 25, 1939. It was closed on January 18, 1968 with Dean Martin in “Texas Across the River”.
Today a florist operated out of the building which by 2022 was Holland’s Caramel Corn.

My Dad owned this theater in the late 60’s. He bought it when no one else wanted it. He hired a bunch of young kids to run it, and every kid in town spent a lot of Saturdays there watching cartoon marathons and Disney flicks…
This theatre was mentioned last night (6/10/13) on the “American Pickers” TV show. A black and white photo of theatre was shown as well as a number of movie posters that had been displayed at it.
The Tazewell Theatre building is now Holland’s Caramelcorn.
