News About This Theater
- Apr 28, 2005 — Village 4 Theatre Closes Its Doors
The Fox Village Theatre was opened at the Maple Village Shopping Center on July 12, 1967 with Lee Marvin in “The Dirty Dozen”. It was built for and operated by Fox Eastern Theatres Corp., which was a subsidiary of National General Corp. It was designed by Drew Eberson, and cost around $500,000.
Later, the Fox Village was sold to the United Artists chain, and after it was sold to Mann Theatres, in 1978, it was twinned. A year later, two additional auditoriums were added to the original building, bringing the seating total to over 950.
Briefly closed in 1992, the theatre was reopened by MJR Theatres. Over the years the theatre was run independently.
The theatre closed on April 24, 2005.

I Love the Village Theatre. I am so glad there is a theatre where we can see flicks at a reasonable price. The do need to spend a few dollars on fixing the place up a bit. Izzys007
Drove by the theater the other day, too bad it doesn’t have a marquee, from the exterior it doesnt seem like it would be an elaborate theater.
Interesting to read about this theatre with the Eberson name, but sadly it didn’t continue to be a single screen theatre as originally intended by the son of John Eberson, Drew.
Is this theater for sale or lease?
I don’t if this is The Village Theatre or not, but a four screener is getting a new life by an Ohio chain called Teicher Theatres.

No, the Briarwood Dollar Movies is in the Briarwood Mall, whereas this quad was in an old strip mall called Maplewood. BTW, the correct website for Teicher Theaters is http://www.teichertheaters.org
