Times Theater

The Times Theater (also known as the Savanna Times Theater) is a twin-screen movie theater located on Main Street in Savanna, Illinois, a small city on the Mississippi River. It operates as a local, independent cinema showing current-release Hollywood films for both adults and children. The theater's own website describes it as "a comfortable twin theater with current release movies each week" and positions itself as a popular entertainment destination in the Savanna area, inviting patrons to "get away from the pressures of work" and enjoy the latest comedies and adventures. The theater traces its origins to a grand opening in the early 1940s, when it was named the Times Theater and drew Savanna residents of all ages to the new movie house. It has since operated as a community cinema, with a website that has been maintained under the SavannaTimesTheater.com domain since at least the mid-2000s. The site lists weekly showtimes and features current films; archived listings include titles such as "Don't Worry Darling," "See How They Run," "Shazam! Fury of the Gods," and "Jesus Revolution." As a small-town single-location cinema, the Times Theater is not part of a large national exhibition chain and does not appear to be publicly traded. It functions as a local cultural and entertainment venue in Carroll County, Illinois, serving the Savanna community and visitors to the Mississippi River area known as the "Sportsman's Paradise."
