The Clark Theatre opened on November 9, 1940 with “Sandy is a Lady” by the Harry Schwartz and George Myers. Winchester Amusement bought it out closing It permanently on November 30, 1942 with “Major Barbara.” Winchester went into bankruptcy and the Clark was auctioned off bringing $16,000 on July 22, 1943. Chakeres Theatres purchased the Town Hall, Broadway and Leeds Theatres that same day. The Clark was again auctioned off on behalf of the Winchester Theatre Circuit on June 5, 1944.
Information in the heading is incorrect. The Clark Theatre was on West Broadway, not Main St.
The November 22, 1940, issue of The Film Daily had a brief item saying that Doris Meyer and Harry Schwartz had opened their new, 500-seat Clark Theatre at Winchester, Kentucky.
