The iconic drive-in theater is currently under new ownership with Lauren McChesney and Matthew McClanahan taking over from Paul and Susan Geissinger in November 2022. McChesney mentioned that it was the ideal moment to acquire the theater, as it had been on the market for years and was starting to resemble a “gas station.”
The pair behind The Moving Picture Cinema, a pop-up movie company, aimed to provide outdoor movie events during the pandemic lockdown. Matthew explained to USA Today that they assisted indoor theaters by organizing outdoor screenings when they were forced to close.
