The Mohawk Theatre ran its last mainstream movie on June 8, 1989 with “The Dream Team”, but ran classic films throughout its last two months of operation until closing on July 25, 1989 with the Lucille Ball/Ginger Rogers classic “Stagedoor”. The Mohawk would later become a performing arts and special events house until the mid-1990s.
