GO BACK IN TIME AT THE SKYWAY DRIVE-IN THEATER

 

This special outdoor theater opened it’s front gate on July 26, 1950.  Movies have been playing ever since then, making it the longest running drive-in in Wisconsin.  Drive-ins were once a common sight throughout Wisconsin, and now, there are nine remaining.

Did you know that drive-ins were as early as the 1910’s, first patented drive-in was open June 6, 1933 in New Jersey by Richard Hollingshead.  He created it as a solution for people unable to fit in movie theater small seats after creating a mini drive-in for his mother.

I lived In Madison, Wisconsin, we were fortunate to have two outdoor theaters one on the westside and one on the eastside.  Unfortunately, both have closed many years ago.  I remember sitting outside our car with our lawn chairs watching “Saturday Night Fever” with John Travolta.  All was great until we encountered a sever thunderstorm that shut down the movie.  In those days the poor sound systems couldn’t handle storms.  All the audio would do would “crack”.  As you can imagine, even in your car the cracking noise wasn’t much fun! 

We are so fortunate to have an outside theater in Door County.  They truly are a special experience for friends and families.  While you are here, go back in time and enjoy a great feature of the 1930’s.

The Skyway Theater is located at 3475 Hwy. 42, Fish Creek.  Doors open at 7:30pm, rain or shine.  Enjoy a double-feature for the price of one ticket.  The prices are very reasonable.   Hope to see you at the outdoor theater!

One example of a historic home is featured below.  

A quaint 20th century white brick home built in 1911 consisting of two rooms with additions in the 30’s, 40’s and 90’s was purchased in 2018.  Steep intersecting gables, corner quoins, and arched windows lend interest and drama to the home.   The addition of the three-season porch allows views to the spacious yard.  

It truly is a wonderful event, and a great way to see other areas of Door County during your visit.
