I have many fond memories of the theater from the 60s and would like to see this bit of history preserved for the town.

Bring back the theatre! Felt great to know that we could send our kids to the theatre in a safe community.

Born in Summit, and raised in Chatham, I request Madison Theater and its building be declared a Heritage Site: an outstanding structure which deserves special protection; a building which could continue to benefit the community of Madison and its neighbors, as a gathering site for all generations, as an arts center, supported by volunteers and benefactors. As a long-time citizen of Simi Valley, CA, I voted for the tax-funded conversion of a (in succession) church/synagogue/funeral home, long vacant, into our Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center (www.simi-arts.org). Is it not up to Madison's citizens as well as its Mayor and Council? Petition to put this to a vote. It worked for Simi Valley; it could well work for Madison. Vote in favor of your community and its needs; preserve your history and provide a center for your citizens.

I couldn't imagine our Madison community without this movie theater. I went to it countless number of times, as did my father and now my children. It's an institution and a part of our history

PLEASE! That theater is an institution. I live in Chatham but always frequented the Madison Theater and food establishments either before or after. More condos..c'mon! Don't regular people's lives and enjoyment count anymore? Me. Conley, I know you will try and do the right thing here.

The movie theater is a vital part of Madison life. It is a key part of the community that made Madison our choice to live in and raise our child and it saddens me greatly to lose it.

Have lived in Madison most of my life, grew up here, remember the excitement as a boy of walking by myself to go see a movie there on saturdays! I was making plans to go see some movies just recently when it closed! Please save this building/theater, to me, its iconic and central to the Madison downtown shopping district and should be preserved so future generations can go enjoy a movie there as I did as a young boy!
