The Main Street Theatre is located on Main Street between Sinclair Lewis Avenue and 4th Street. The theatre was opened in 1939. Since its opening is has only had two owners.
It went through some remodels over the years but with a grant from the state is has been restored to its original Art Deco style.
The front of the theatre is a beautiful Art Deco with a large rounded marquee. The vertical is unique in itself with a square at the top with the word “Main” and the vertical itself spells out “Street”. There is a comet that goes from the roof of the theatre to the underside of “Main” on the vertical all in neon in red and yellow. The under side of the marquee is lined with hundreds of single lights. This is really an eye catching theatre by all means. By May 2016 it had been converted into a 3-screen theatre.
