Plaza Twin

The Plaza Twin was opened June 1, 1967. This old theater was located at Wesleyan Park Plaza in Owensboro. Now a church occupies the space. They use the cinema rooms as their sancturary and their lobby as the front of the church. A rival was the mall twin cinema in Lincoln Mall but, it has now closed too.
