  • The Lorraine Theater in Hoopeston is making its mark in the city with a first run movie. Last month, the building reopened and aired a few test movies. This will be the theater's first time playing a movie that has been recently released.

The Lorraine Theater in Hoopeston, Illinois, is experiencing a revival by screening first-run movies, a significant shift from its past when it mainly showed older films. This change aims to attract more visitors and revitalize the historic venue, which has been a part of the community since 1923. The theater, now managed by the Hoopeston Historical Society, has undergone renovations to enhance its appeal, including new seating and updated technology for better movie viewing experiences. The introduction of current films like "The Garfield Movie" and "IF" has been part of a strategy to engage both local residents and visitors, helping to preserve the theater's legacy while adapting to modern entertainment demands.
