The Theatre

We need your help to keep our doors open! The movie industry is transitioning from 35mm film to digital projection. In order to convert our projection booth we need to raise $100,000. For more information, and to donate, please visit our Save the Theatre page.

On April 9th, 1941 the North Bend Theatre opened its doors. It has continued operating as an independent movie theater since that day. On October 1, 1999, the Slover family took over and the theatre underwent a major renovation. Every part of the building was improved without sacrificing the distinctive character of this 1941 Art Deco theatre. The theatre reopened in December, 1999. It is now owned and operated by the Walker family, who took over in May of 2006.

Some highlights of the renovation include:

• A restored facade with a replica of the original neon sign.
• A bigger lobby with two concession areas: latte service and traditional snacks.
• New restrooms and heating and cooling systems.
• Increased leg room and cupholders.
• State of the art projection system and DTS sound system.
• New curtains and wall coverings.
