Descripción de The Wayside Theater - A Friend Of Gertrude (05-14-39)

A Friend Of Gertrude (Aired May 14, 1939) Opened for the Butterfield Theaters chain in 1968, the Wayside was designed by Louis Wiltse and could seat just over 1000. The Wayside's most famous feature was its enormous screen, measuring 56' by 24', at the time the largest indoor screen in the US. The lobby was designed to resemble a comfortable (albeit with late 60s style decor) living room, with sofas, end tables, lamps and artwork. In 1984, the auditorium was twinned, after Butterfield sold the Wayside to Illinois-based Kerasotes Theatres. In late 1991, the theater was gutted and reopened as the Wayside Whirly Ball amusement center. Wayside Theater was a radio show that served as the breather for its listeners, due to the fact that it featured the most sought-after tandem of genres, the romantic comedy.
