I read that too. I just thought maybe they would have gotten over it I guess the theater just really interests me I would try talking to her but I have nothing to go on.
who exactly owns it and how aged are they? you mention a little old lady I take it you must have met her. I know they are angry about the mall being built but are they really that bitter?
I was just thinking if someone has the owner’s information someone should contact her and tell her about our site and if she would let us inside to look around then we could take pictures (if allowed) and then if we are given a specific time and date we could all meet each other at the theater if we are allowed the tour…Just a thought
wow thanks for the trouble any other movies that played or anything ele is alaways a pleasure. did you ever see a movie at the fox? if you have when and what did you see?
good read. I know it’s weird but I wonder what the last movie that played at the Fox was? What would be really cool is if someone representing our site interviewed the owner.
Wow thanks for the info keep it coming if you got any more. If you can ask him what movies played there during the span of his employment if he can remember. 2001 a space odyssey is a great movie I happen to be a very big stanley kubrick fan
I’m 29 years old and grew up in Milwaukee and I have two meomories of the starlite drive-in when I was seven years old I went there with my friend and our moms and saw Gremlins for my frien’s birthday and for my birthday we went to see Desperately Seeking Susan
Today’s issue of the stevens point journal has stated that the marquee is getting even more work done they got a new “Fox” sign and the goal is for the marquee to be in working order in time for the Thanksgiving parade. The family who owns the fox have still only given consent for restoration of the marquee only and were not available for comment.
I grew up in milwaukee and I used to see movies here with my aunt and other family members when I was a kid in the 80’s my grandparents and used to go to the Modgeska on “dates” and The whole family would choose the modjeska if they/we wanted to see a movie it was our “family” theater I was wondering if anyone can post any 80’s modjeska pictures because that would be how I remember it.
I am very interested if the theater is again to be in business and if someone can get some pre-restoration pictures as I said in my last comment I wonder what the place looks like at this very minute

Good to know, I wonder if they would let anyone peek inside while they were working
oh yeah if someone gets to it before I do please post a link because I’m definitely sure this is going to make the journal
Wow awesome! please keep us posted were the doors finally open? I wish they would have had a tour before they brought in the equipment.
I’m 29 years old and I grew up in milwaukee and I saw my first “scary” movie on the big screen at the modjeska which was Children Of The Corn

Who owns the fox? I know it is an older woman but Who and does she live in town?
Could you possibly ask your dad what his job at the fox was and to share some memories and post here? I’m sure we would all love to know!
If anyone checks out the video and book let me know how it is and if it’s worth reading/watching post here or email me.
I would love to see some pics please email me at
