Oberlin Big Parade Supports Apollo Theatre Preservation
A May parade in Oberlin drew about 85 supporters who urged keeping the Apollo Theatre as a single screen. Patrons gathered at the theater after the float procession to pose photos and reiterate that they like the historic venue as it is. The Apollo, part of downtown Oberlin’s historic district, is slated for renovations by a group tied to Oberlin College but will remain single screen.
