A page about Bushnell on the Sumpter County web site says: “Bushnell had it’s own opera house. It was located on the corner of Main Street and McCollum Avenue. Local plays and occasional road shows were performed there. With the coming of motion pictures, patrons gathered to watch the early movie stars such as Charlie Chaplain and Mary Pickford.”
