Cactus Theater at 1812 Buddy Holly Ave, 79401 Lubbock, Texas

Description

Cactus Theater began construction in Lubbock, Texas, in 1937 and officially opened in April of 1938 as the first suburban, neighborhood movie theater. Built with a cost of around $30,000, it originally featured 720 seats and a “washed air cooling system”. Its marquee featured 750 feet of neon lighting. The original venue operated from 1938-1958. It found new life from the mid-'90s and into the new millennium under the vision and guidance of Don Caldwell and the efforts of volunteers and investors seeking to revive this historic downtown venue. Today, the Cactus continues to evolve and embrace new frontiers, guided by promoter and new theater owner Darryl Holland - with an added emphasis on booking national touring acts. Recently, new state-of-the-art digital cinema equipment and a retractable silver screen were added to the mix. Indeed, the Cactus Theater has gone "back to the future" by returning to its roots as a duel stage AND screen venue.
