The Theatre is the oldest movie theater in New Hampshire. We celebrated our 100th anniversary in September 2014.
Peterborough’s first and only movie theater opened September 26, 1914 as the Gem Theater and was built by local residents Charles, Warren, and Lester Nichols. The theater had a seating capacity of 500; admission was five cents for children, ten cents for adults, and balcony seats were fifteen cents. In the early years, both movies and stage productions were regularly featured at the Gem.
