The Eric Penn-Jersey Theatre opened its doors as a single-screener on December 22, 1967 with Walt Disney’s “The Jungle Book” and “Charlie The Lonesome Cougar”. It was twinned on June 25, 1976, renaming it “Eric Twin Penn-Jersey”, and was tripled in June 1983 after one of its auditoriums was divided and was renamed “Eric 3 Penn-Jersey”.
United Artists later operated the Eric 3 Penn-Jersey during its final years of operation. It was lastly known as “UA Movies at Penn-Jersey” before closing for the final time on September 5, 1996.
I wish I had a picture of the mural that was painted on the upper walls inside. I remember it vividly.
I would assume when this became a 3-plex, one of the twin theatres itself was split into 2?
actually, the theater closed around 94-95. i remember the theater was damaged in a flood in 96.
after it closed, it became a saturn dealership.
