Chambers”. The Court Theatre was closed on January 30, 1956 with Bud Abbott & Lou Costello in “Abbott & Costello Meet the Mummy”.

The Court Theatre was the first movie theater to operate in Vienna since the nearby Vienna Theatre closed in early-1946, leaving moviegoers to go see movies in either Rolla or Belle.
