On January 27, 1971, the Sherman Theatre became a twin theater as the Sherman I & II Theatre. The theater remained as a twin until closing as a movie house in the mid-1980s.

This was the announcement in the January 27, 1929 issue of Film Daily: “Stroudsburg, Pa.— H. A. and Fred F. Scheurmann have opened their Sherman here.”

Just passed by the theater while stopping in Stroudsburg this morning for Starbucks on my way back to NYC! This theater has a very handsome new, but traditional, Marquee and is very much still open. Nice surprise!

A History of the Movie Theaters in Monroe County by Roy E. Pipher has a very detailed history of this theater. The book is available at Carroll & Carroll Bookstore on Main Street in Stroudsburg.
