Wow! So, something reminded me of the Kent Theater in Philly where I grew up so I Googled it and happened across this terrific site. I loved reading all the prior posts and especially the photos. Yes, most Saturday afternoons included the Matinée at the beautiful Kent where, at least when I went, one would enjoy the Coming Attractions, Three Stooges, 20 Cartoons and a movie such as King Kong, Dracula, Frankenstein, The King and I, “etcetera, etcetera, etcetera”. I remember “Mr. Levy” was in charge. I attended the Visitation B.V.M as well and did get up on stage after winning one of those “Lucky Bucks” one Saturday. Great memories, great Theater!
