One of a number of theatres operating in Opelousas in the 1950’s. Together with the Delta Theatre and the Yam Drive-In, these were the only theatres still operating at the end of 1957.
It is listed (incorrectly spelled as Lou Ann) in the book, “African American Theaters Buildings: An Historical Directory.”

This article from the Opelousas Daily World of September 19, 2019 has a history of the town’s theaters, and says that the Lou Ana Theatre opened in 1951.
