The Center reopens as a community center on No 23rd with a screening of “Casablanca”. The event runs from 5-8 PM and admission is free!
Good news! The Save the Center group signed a 4 month lease that begins in Sept & plan to run it as a venue for community theater & film festivals. The first show will be “A Chorus Line” in Oct. Save the Center is trying to raise $2 Million to buy the theater & they are hoping to land a Redevelopment agency loan. One potential issue could be parking, there are only 30 spaces at the theater.
Update: The church that was leasing the theater moved out at the end of June. Theater preservationists are again reviving a plan to purchase the theater(with hopefully Redevelopment Agency help) and turn it into a community center/dinner theater.
Good comments on the Center. One correction, however regarding theatres in what is now Fremont. The Center was not the first in the area. There were two theatres built in Niles (one is now a photography studio, the other burned), and the Leal Theatre in Irvington, long ago converted to office and retail, but with facade mostly intact, still stands.
