About the Theater
The Reeves Theater was originally opened as a grand Art Deco movie theater in 1941. It was fully operational until 1973, and later reopened as the Elk Twin until 1994. By then, the Reeves interior and façade were in desperate need of repair. Purchased by a group of concerned citizens, the Reeves was reroofed and saved as a significant downtown structure. In 2013, Debbie Carson and Chris Groner purchased the Reeves, and with their partner and project superintendent Erik Dahlager, have overseen its renovation into one of North Carolina’s premier music venues. The Reeves Theater Cafe is also one of downtown Elkin’s favorite dining spots!
