This theater was originally built to "satisfy New Yorkers but at a fraction of the cost to theater patrons." by Harry Brownback.

One of the most famous horror movies had a scene filmed here.

The town it is in used to be a thriving city, but has since gone by the wayside. It is currently in a bit of a rennaisance with many shops and restaurants opening up along the street this theater is on. although this street is one of the busier ones in town, it's not Main St.

The new tag; A Blob theme.
Continuing "The Blob" theme; this new tag is on the site of the diner scene in the movie.

The original diner from the movie was reportedly moved to Hollywood to be used as a set in other movies.

I can't post the pics, but they have a Blobfest every year at the theater. They do the running out of the theater scene too.
www.thecolonialtheater.com has more info.

the inside of the theater is being renovated and they have made some great steps in the past few years.

Well, I guess if you're just going to keep dropping tags across town at obvious places with addresses - you're right, it's not that fast after all.

Too bad you the PA ToR doesn't have some kind of "man rule" where the new tag has to be at least 20 miles from the last one.

I was looking at their website, they have the Rocky Horror Picture show coming up too. It seems like a cool little town with the shops and theatre and all of the open air restaurants/bars.

Nice tag.

well maybe if you lived in an area with good tags that are closer together you wouldn't feel that way
also, i extended my ride to and from the tag by about 15 miles. making it a bit more than 20 miles each way =Þ
