It was December 1925 when the venerable Cedar Lee Theatre first opened its doors, screening “The King On Main Street,” a silent film starring Adolphe Menjou.
Now with digital projection systems, live simulcasts, Hi-definition presentations from New York’s Metropolitan Opera, Moscow’s Bolshoi Ballet and London’s National Theatre, the Cedar Lee Theatre continues to thrive.

Jonathan Forman, what a great guy and leader in the Cleveland arts community. Brought us some great theaters, and… early on in his career; he brought us independent films, that most Clevelanders would not have had the opportunity to enjoy. He also created, with David Wittkowski, the Cleveland International Film Festival, one of the best in the nation. Thank you Jonathan. http://www.cleveland.com/moviebuff/index.ssf/2011/03/cleveland_international_film_f_7.html
