The Art Deco-style doors (with a clever stick figure embedded in the center) welcome the visitor to the theater lobby.
Of course, what theater would be complete without a concession stand, with candy bars, popcorn, and cotton candy?
The ticket booth in the lobby reminds one that this is an active theater, with a main screen and four smaller rooms. The main screen generally shows a varying program - December's is entitled "Silent Nights of December Silent Film Fest," with well-known movies, such as The Battleship Potemkin, M, and Nanook of the North, along with lesser-known films from the silent era - while the side theaters allow patrons to select films in categories such as "Adventure," "Comedy," "Fantasy," and "Drama."

The theater is a little out of theme - both the decor and the subject matter (even the silent films are all post-Victorian) - but perhaps close enough, in the grand scheme of things.
And did I mention the movies are free?

Should we mention the owner had a bad habit of crashing other people's events wearing a billboard for his theatre and spamming the Ning groups? I actively avoid his establishment for that reason.
Well, thus far, a good neighbor. I shall have to contemplate my reaction to a billboard-wearing gate-crasher, however, should the need arise. Perhaps a visit to Miss Malaprop's establishment will spark some inspiration... :)
This is all True!
