A video showing our vision. Pictures of the Kenosha Theater taken today VS pictures taken in the same spots in the 1930s. The Theater used to be bustling with life, and we'd like to breathe that life back into this place.

finishing the rest of the front next week

The donations from the Kenosha Theater Donothon have already made a very tangible difference. Doors! The front of the Theater is finally far more than just a boarded up wall. Thanks to donations from viewers like you!

I'm free, chat. I beat Silent Hill 2 Remake (and showed several endings!) and we ended the Theater Donothon on the Rebirth ending. Which feels symbolic of the Kenosha Theater being reborn.

Thank you all for your generosity, and even just hanging around!! 💖 We reached our goal, AND a stretch goal!

Photograph of several different colored envelopes with postcard prints, stickers, and the keychain. Everything is Silent Hill themed, especially for the Kenosha theater donothon.

FINALLY SENDING OUT PRIZES!! Thank you again to all the donors of the Kenosha Theater Donothon!! I hope you all enjoy your goodies ❤️

The first video diving into the few recordings from the early 1980's. Restoring the Kenosha Theatre was never supposed to take as long as it has. It still needs millions of dollars to bring it back… Terry Tour 1984

While restoring the old Kenosha Theater Apartments, drains and water feeds needed to be completely replaced. A large undertaking that was completed over years! This is one of the final horizontal drains being replaced with PVC.

The Theater Donothon is still going strong! With a little less than 7 hours left on the clock for tomorrow. Will tomorrow be the last day, or will some more donations come in to continue the marathon into Wednesday?

Bill's our hero. He cut out this slab of concrete to make it that much easier to move things into the basement. Thanks, Bill! #diy #restoration

Meant to say "mural" on the south wall - typos happen to the best of us.
