The Fabian was a fun place to go when I was a kid. I remember the prices being 25 cents children and 50 cents adults. This was around 1960. Saturday afternoons were always for the kiddees. They would usually have the latest japenese sci fi movies, like Godzilla, Rodan ect. Also, they would show some good horror flicks with Vincent Price. They didn’t rip you off on candy and refreshments. We were kids and didn’t have much money. They must have realized that, They were kid friendly. Some kids would push open the fire doors and a gang of kids would run in for free. Sometimes the ushers would chase after them. It seemed that we would be running around the theatre sometimes socializing as much as watching the movies. There was usually a liitl romance going on with the older kids. I remeber a guy and his gal with a coat over their heads smooching. We thought that was such a big deal.
