399 Hi-Y Drive, Henderson, KY 42420 will essentially put you right on the spot where the Drive-In was, now a residential neighborhood, but visible on Historic Aerials 1950 and 1958 shots.
Tragic note from BoxOffice, Jan. 18, 1960: “Bernard D. Bright, 44, owner of the Hi-Y Drive-In Theatre in Henderson the last eight years, was killed recently in what apparently was an after-closing holdup at the Bright Star cafeteria, which he had opened only 17 days previous to his death.”
Closed October 27, 1963 at the end of lease with “The Stripper” and “The Nutty Professor.”
