First opened in 1947, the Star Theatre screened films and hosted live entertainment, drawing in locals and out-of-town visitors to the historic venue. With the theater newly renovated, the purchase of the historic facility could provide the town with a cultural anchor that would serve as a community-oriented center for concerts, movies, town gatherings, and other events, while simultaneously supporting Stuart’s historic downtown redevelopment effort.en-USIn CopyrightReporthttps://cece.vt.edu/content/dam/cece_vt_edu/projects/Star%20Theatre%20Feasibility%20Study.pdf
