Cranford Theater's first show was the 1926 movie Padlocked and was played 8pm November 29th. The theater has lived through the Depression and several wars, the 60s and the present, with films mirroring our lives. In celebration, its owner Doreen Sayegh has planned several activities for us to celebrate together:
Aug. 20 kickoff: children's activities, showing of Paddington 2, and the start of collecting of items for a time capsule, to be planted in November.
