154 - 156 Main Street
Northeast Maryland
  ( Cecil County ,Maryland )

  The town of Northeast Maryland in Cecil County had at least one old movie theatre, the Northeast Theatre .If what I can tell, it was also known as the Opera House in early years - and a recent check found not only is the building still standing, but is in excellent condition and is being used by a local Dollar General Store. Kilduffs came through North East about ten years ago, and the Dollar General was operating out of the building at that time as well.
     In the late 1920's and early 1930's, the theatre went by the name of the Opera House and the New Opera House , seating between 200 and 300 people. By the late 1930's, the name had been changed to the Northeast, showing the address of 153 Main Street , but a check of Insurance maps showed the building at 154-156 Main Street , just south of Cecil Avenue. The Northeast seated between 400 and 500 people.

   We have also found a reference to the Cecil Theatre around the late 1930's, located in the GAR Hall on Nowland Avenue. Nowland Avenue no longer exist ( they changed the name ) and all we could find on a recent check was a house.  We did find the GAR Hall on an old insurance map.
