Fun Things found in the Theater: anybody hungry? We found some old popcorn during our last volunteer event. It's only uhhh...20 years old? I'm sure it's fine.

Volunteer Day was interrupted by an unexpected visitor πŸ˜… We get bats here in the Kenosha Theater every so often. We eventually did lead it out of the basement by gently waving a stick at it.

Join our next volunteer event! Coming up March 8th! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Two Monumental Legacies - Jeff Baas, The Kenosha Theatre, and Ray Shepardson As part of the Organ Grinder Documentary Project, we visited Wisconsin in September, 2025, and one of the stops was a visit with Jeff Baas, owner of the Kenosha Theatre. Jeff and his brother…

Check out this mini-documentary that dives into the history of the Kenosha Theater, particularly touching on the original pipe organ!

If you enter the Kenosha Theater at just the right time this time of year, you'll see a single ray of light coming through the window in the projector booth. You could say the projector booth is still doing it's job.

There's a ladder at the back of the Theater's stage that reaches all the way to the top. It's so tall, we can't even fit the whole thing in one photo!

In addition to the front having doors, the back of the Kenosha Theater has new windows installed! Huge difference to the boarded up windows we've grown so used to.

With teamwork, anything's possible. Even moving two huge shelves into an old theater basement.

What a haul. Not only did we move those shelves into the basement this past volunteer day, but we also moved all this stuff stacked against it!

Fun Things found in the Theater: alarm clock shaped like a computer. We find all sorts of stuff in here - from the early 1900s, to the 80s, to today.

We now have doors AND windows. It lets a lot of light into the front foyer and lobby! This way, people can see work getting done as they pass by. If you're ever in the area, don't be afraid to ask for a tour!
