The Wallace Theater in Levelland, Texas, was first opened in 1928 by Wallace Blankenship and his wife, Rose. The Blankenships operated the film room, sold tickets, and even lived above the lobby in a loft apartment space. Over the next two decades, the family owned 17 theaters in towns across the South Plains. The Wallace Theater has gone through remodeling projects, additions and many changes throughout its history. It is currently owned by George Keeling, of Levelland, and is undergoing extensive renovation to reopen as a communtiy center, movie theater and live performance venue for the citizens of Hockley County and west Texas.
