Theater Buffs Gird For Fundraising Blitz To Restore Denis

A Mt. Lebanon nonprofit is embarking on an ambitious campaign to raise $3 million and restore the old Denis Theatre.

The Denis, named for the brother of the man who opened the country's first movie theater in Pittsburgh, opened its doors in 1938 and showed "art" films such as "The Graduate" and "To Sir with Love" during its heyday in the 1960s, said Anne Kemerer, project manager for the Denis Theatre Foundation.
