2016-07-25 - The 2,450-seat Boyd Theatre opened on Christmas Day, 1928. Despite attempts to save the Art Deco theatre, it was razed in 2015. After the Kimball organ became silent in 1968, it was rescued and moved to the Dickinson High School in Wilmington, Delaware, where it has been greatly enlarged. -Database Manager
