This historic theatre dates back to 1938 when it opened its doors as a movie theatre, with one of the most successful films of its day, "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farms," starring Shirley Temple. In 1991, the theatre was transformed into a multi-purpose cultural center – with a proscenium for theatrical productions, sprung stage for dance performances, orchestra pit, new image projection, lighting and sound systems.
