Celebrate the Arts with Michael J. Nazarewycz, author of Historic Movie Theaters of Delaware
This month we welcome author Michael J. Nazarewycz for a discussion and signing of his new book, Historic Movie Theaters of Delaware.
Michael is an engaging speaker, whose love of movies and the history of movie theaters is captivating.
From the opera house and movie palace to the modern multiplex, the big screen in Delaware is more than a century old. Hollywood legend Cary Grant visited the Playhouse Theater in 1955, Clint Eastwood came to Wilmington for a secret test screening of his film “The Gauntlet” at the Branmar Cinema. The groundbreaking history of “Star Wars” includes a Delaware theater that was one of only forty-five in the country to open the film. Michael J. Nazarewycz recounts the cinematic history of Delaware's movie theaters in his just published book.
Books will be available for sale, which Michael will be more than happy to sign.
