Time has come for the resurrection of this venue.

A closer address is 1808 Wallace Airport Rd, Wallace, NC.

A small section of the original entrance road is on the residential property. Which is the source of the address for the theater.

The drive-in appears complete and operational in a 1951 aerial. By 1977, it had been completely demolished.

Today, it is mostly an open field with the trees and Henderson Road bordering the property. It is next to a small airfield with a Moose Lodge occupying part of the property.
