There were 3 theaters in Gate City, all 3 were on the lower side of the street on Jackson Street. One was near the Virginia National Bank it was in the old Western Auto Store building. Anyone that remembers the Old Western Auto building should remember the floor was still sloped. One of the theaters was beside of Quillens Hardware, it burned down in the early 60’s. Between where DR. Griggs office was and where the old power company office was is the location of another theatre, you can’t really tell it was a theater from the outside but the inside was still intact and filled with antiques.
