One of the last cinemas opened under the Storey Theatre’s banner, the Town 8 Theatre was top of the line in every detail; decorative auditoria each equipped with state of the art projection and sound, tear-drop curtains in the 70mm auditorium and vertical in the 35mm venues which opened at the beginning of the feature presentation and closed after the last credit rolled.
In 1999 when Regal acquired the cinema it was expanded to 16 screens, each with stadium seating, and the main entrance was moved to the west end of the multiplex. It reopened November 19, 1999. Part of the original interior of the 70mm auditorium has been moved into the main auditorium of the new wing. It was closed on March 16, 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was announced in October 2020 that the closure would be permanent.

This is opened by Storey Theatres on May 23rd, 1986 with eight screens. I have posted an grand opening ad with picture in the photo section for this theatre.
Worked from 1986-1989. I actually worked here BEFORE it opened (early 1986). I moved up from the south side of town (Jonesboro) to work here. Worked at National 6 in College Park previously. I was a projectionist, then Manager. Good times!
I miss Storey Theaters…
12 screens on December 20th, 1991. another ad posted.
The Regal 22 at Austell and the Town Center 16 both opened on November 19th, 1999.
My wife and I saw The Lighthouse the evening of October 25, 2019. I added some pictures from the lobby. I would have gotten our auditorium, but it was too dark for pictures… even with the “Noovie” playing!

I think this was the last operating facility of the old Storey chain.
If there are any CT readers with an emotional attachment to this location, and I doubt there are, you might want to plan a visit to take a last look as a developer is requesting rezoning. No word on the actual plan but the zoning requested would allow for the construction of one of those Live, Work, Play developments that are so popular now. The signs are posted around the pie shaped area between the mall ring road, I-575, and the commercial development to the north so the mall proper is not involved unless perhaps it’s current zoning already allows for such.
