Boxoffice of July 8, 1950 had a brief item noting that the Werts Brothers were celebrating the 22nd anniversary of their Mainstreet Theatre in Beloit. George and Bert Werts had opened the house on June 28, 1928. In 1950, an air conditioning system and new projection equipment were being installed, and the theater was being repainted.

Based on the street view, it appears that the theater was demolished.

The photo taken by Don Lewis is not the Mainstreet Theatre Building. I am not sure of the original use for this particular building, but sometime in the past it was sub divided and sold to two different owners. The Mainstreet theatre was located in the 100 block of west Main, the building in the picture is in the 100 block of east Main.

Pity there is not a lot of comments on a theatre that was built in the twenties. Joel,More history.
