Projectionist at the Eatonville Roxy (ca 1920s)

Movie Projectionist at the Roxy

Eatonville has almost always had a theater. In 1922 Angelo Pecchia bought the theater from Frank Van Eaton.

In 1942 he built the Roxy theater that operates today, although its film projector is being replaced by a digital projector.
