Andover's first movie theater was the Wonderland opened in 1909 at 7 Elm Street. The Colonial Theater on Essex Street opened in 1912. The building, owned by Sam Resnick was later named the Andover Playhouse. When the movie house closed in the '60s, the building was converted to office use, and it housed the part of town government that wouldn't fit into the town hall. Finally, the building, then called the "Theater Building," was torn down in 1984 for parking space at the library.
