This drive in was located between what is now the North Vernon Fire Department and Wal-Mart. N. Madison Avenue when the theatre was open was N. 2nd Street. This is actually north of town next to Highway 3. It was opened in August 1957 with James Stewart in “The Far Country” & Tony Curtis in “Johnny Dark”. It was demolished in the 1980’s.

This appears that it opened in the 1960s and was demolished in the mid-1980s.
Boxoffice, Sept. 7, 1957: “The new North Vernon Drive-In officially opened recently. Howard L. Black, owner, reports he had an overcapacity attendance all that weekend with "Far Country” and “Johnny Dark.” The theatre accommodates 360 cars with space available for an additional 150. Black, a native of North Vernon, is new to the theatre business and will operate the drive-in along with his two sons."
