This photo is one of my favorite views I took. I remember when it was a set of Sputnik 1950’s modern chandeliers hanging back in my day.

robboehm Hi, I used to live about a 10 to 15 minute walk from the Babylon theater on George street ,and for 50 cents the Babylon theater was my window to the world real or imagined.I could take part in the Normandy invasion in “THE LONGEST DAY"or travel all over Europe in"THE YELLOW ROLLS ROYCE”;or travel in the human body in a miniature sub in"FANTASTIC VOYAGE"and go to school to learn something of value from Sidney Poitier in “TO SIR WITH LOVE"and brush up my Shakespeare with Dick and Liz in "THE TAMING OF THE SHREW”.

Growing up at the Babylon theater was usually a family affair, once I went with my grandmother and saw “HAROLD LLOYD’S WORLD OF COMEDY”. The kiddie matinees were a mixed bag; some adults should be made to see them, like “PINOCCHIO IN OUTER SPACE”, “EMMET KELLY, THE CLOWN AND THE KIDS” and “WILLY McBEAN AND HIS TIME MACHINE”; “JOURNEY TO THE BEGINNING OF TIME” was okay.Sometimes it would be a classic, like the 1939 “ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER”. For the most part I enjoyed more adult movies, like “ZULU”, “MAJOR DUNDEE” or the re-release of “THE HOUSE OF WAX” with 3D glasses. My mother never read the theater listings and there was no rating system then, so my mother took her six year old boy to see the 1962 re-release of “PSYCHO”. I don’t know if she was expecting to see an old Alice Faye movie, but it was an education.

In the back of the old Babylon Prudential theater seating area
ground level,would be a row of glass entrance doors.
The glass doors would contain the sound of the movie away from the concession area and main lobby.

Attractions display inside lobby on immediate right by front entrance.Before the theater was divided in the 1980’s it was two coming attractions display cases. There was two now playing posters in the front window to the left of the ticket window. On the back side of those displays facing the lobby would be for another local Prudential theater attractions posters,maybe the Bayshore theater.
