Opened with a “Black Tie Affair” on January 17, 1941, The Citrus Theatre was a staple of entertainment and nightlife in downtown Edinburg for roughly 50 years.
Not only did it bring cinematic classics to Edinburg residents, but it also highlighted worldwide events and news such as the Attack on Pearl Harbor, The Battle of The Bulge, The Cuban Missile Crisis, The Vietnam War, and The Civil Rights Movement.
