The Arlington Theatre launched with two sold out shows for Interstate Theatre Circuit on February 10, 1950 with “The Story of Seabiscuit.” Mayor B.C. Barnes cut a ceremonial ribbon and the Flying Ranchboys and Durrelle Alexander preformed live on stage prior to the film. Interstate moved on from the Arlington on August 29, 1974 after Walt Disney’s “Absent Minded Professor.” It then became a church before being used for live concerts first by Johnny High’s Country Review beginning in 1995 as the Arlington Music Hall.
