The Star Theatre operated as early as 1920 and was still open in the mid-1950’s. Its opening and closing dates remains unknown at this time.

This theatre was very notable for one of its operators named Lyle S. Leas who also operated the several grocery store chains in Fort Wayne and Auburn, alongside the Leas Quality Super Market in Fremont. Leas operated the Star Theatre for nearly a year during the early-1950’s, before becoming a Democratic Central Committee member several years later in 1956.

The Star Theatre, at Toledo and Wayne streets, is listed at Fremont in the 1914-1915 AMPD. The 1914 Sanborn map of Fremont shows “Moving Pictures” in the third storefront east of Wayne Street on the north side of Toledo Street. The building is still standing, with Masonic symbols on it and the name “North Eastern Lodge.” A Google Street View notation says “Permanently Closed.” The address is 105 Toledo Street.
