Robin, Adam did not run the projectors. The people who ran the projectors were Mr. Mitcham, Dave, Mickey, Kris, and Doug (when he was not drooling over Laurie).

I worked at the Promenade in the early ‘80s- I helped put up that Porkey’s sign. The building management made us take it down. Some of the best times of my life were at this theater.

I never even pretended to manage here. My husband was the manager! By the time these movies came out Judy might have been managing. You remember, you met her at the reunion — Cathy’s friend???

Nick had been telling me we probably had Silent movie houses way before the Imperial was built.He was right.I bet Bill has never heard of those old classic movie theatres.
