The old stage was torn out, but parts of the arch adornment around were the screen was is still there, just not where the public can see it. The auditorium was split down the middle and two seperate screens were put in. As far as I can tell it never had a balcony.

The Bonnie Kate is now owned by Cyndy and Bryan Higgs. It was twined back in the late 60’s, two owners ago. The inside has been remodeled, which started with the restrooms and worked its way to the lobby and concessions. The lobby has these wonderful columns and awesome brown marble that starts at the doors and goes all the way back to the entrance to the two auditoriums. I will add pictures of the inside as soon as I can find them.

Each screen now will seat 150 to 160 people and has wheel chair access. The ceilings inside are the original pressed metal, and brings a historical look and feel. The projectors have been replaced with better and more modern equipment including the new red sound readers. The audio equipment has also been replaced from the processors and amps to the speakers in the auditoriums.

It’s a great place to see a movie—nice, small-town atmosphere with really friendly people. Located just one block off Main St, and just a couple of blocks from the Covered Bridge, if you are in the area, it is one the best theaters anyone could visit.
