A small movie theater chain based in Omaha, Neb., Main Street Theatres operates five movie theaters across Nebraska, Iowa and Wisconsin.
According to Michael Barstow, Main Street Theatres’ executive vice president and a Chicago resident, the company will move into Harper Theater on Dec. 1 to begin renovations and other upgrades throughout the building.
The company, which is family-owned, was drawn to Harper Theater because “they have experience on college campuses and being very much neighborhood feeders… immediately it felt familiar,” Barstow said. "

The Gem Theatre in Huber Springs, Arkansas was a movie theater that operated from 1939 to 1984, and then reopened in 2009. It had 430 seats and was located at 117 West Main Street in Huber Springs.
The Gem Theatre was a popular entertainment venue in Huber Springs and was known for showing a variety of movies, including popular releases and classic films. It was a central part of the community for many years, and its closure in 1984 was a significant loss for the town.
In 2009, the Gem Theatre was reopened after a group of local residents worked to raise funds and restore the building. It now operates as a non-profit organization and continues to show movies and host other events. The Gem Theatre is an important part of Huber Springs' history and continues to be a beloved community gathering place.
The Fox Theater is closed, temporarily at least, and the West Side Recreation and Park District is in contact with the building’s owner to see if it can be reopened.
There are numerous problems with the landmark downtown theater that resulted in it being closed earlier this month.

“On Feb. 9, 2020, I sat in the back row of a sparsely populated theater inside the downtown Santa Cruz Nickelodeon Theatre for an evening showing of Bong Joon Ho’s “Parasite.” That same night, it became the first international feature film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, as I had expected considering the global buzz that it generated.
However, despite the early stages of COVID-19 anxiety creating parallel worldwide noise, I never would have expected that this would be my final trip to the Nick.
The unassuming, beloved, four-screen arthouse theater on Lincoln Street “temporarily” suspended services on March 16, 2020, along with just about every other business in town. Many are back in business, but the Nick — a local staple for 50 years — has yet to come back to life.
Can it still be revived?
The Nick hasn’t been officially pronounced dead, but it certainly seems to be dying. The cause? It might seem like a no-brainer that COVID sped its closing. But streaming — an already popular force that was accelerated by the pandemic — has a hand in its demise as well.
For a hot second, it looked like the Nick might be making a comeback when the Del Mar, the other Landmark-operated theater in town, reopened in 2021. However, those hopes quickly slipped down the drain after weeks and months passed with the theater remaining shuttered, and the Nick’s Facebook page has been silent since the summer of 2021. …"
