Star Theatre

Edward Novak launched the Star Theatre in September of 1915. Under operator A.R Pytlik, the Star converted to sound to present talkies beginning on November 24, 1929. Czech films were part of the film mix as there was a large group of Czech pioneers who had been in the town back to the late 1800s. In fact, the Star’s final offering was the Czech film, “Harmonika” shown on March 28, 1943. It closed thereafter.
