About This Property

Town Theatre opened in 1947 as a movie house. Throughout the years, the building served a number of other purposes including a manufacturing site, night club and local pigeon roost. Today, after a million dollar renovation by the Friends of the Old Town Theatre, the facility is used frequently for plays, musicals, concerts and other community events. The building's facade and permanent movie posters incorporate the work of artist Richard Haas.
