Does anyone know what type of equipment is in the booth and are they running reel-to-reel or have they gone platter

Does anyone know if Charlie Chaplin’s films played here back in the day? Especially City Lights. Not revivals but as a new release.

In the ‘70s, a mom and pop ran this theatre. I’m told you could hear the firemen next door.

Yes, this theatre is next to a firehouse. When I last passed the place on the LIRR I noticed they now feature live children’s shows.

Is this the theatre located next to the firehouse?

I thought the marquee fell off in the middle of the night? They now have a flat one against the building.

I know they did renovate the theater and the booth but I never heard about a lightning strike.

A few years ago, I believe a bolt of lightning interrupted the show, damaging the marquee as well as the booth. Theater was restored, but the marquee was not. Does anyone have details about that?

When I had this theatre the midnight shows were outgrossing the regular films reciepts. We did very well with a 3-D festival that we repeated twice.
