PARK RIDGE, IL -- The Pickwick Theatre will celebrate its 80th anniversary by playing the same silent film it played when it opened: "Lilac Time" with Gary Cooper and Colleen Moore.
The theater, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, is distinctive for its 100-foot art deco tower. It has been in continuous operation since 1928 without any modification to the original auditorium and has been owned by the same family since 1967.
