Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony Marks Official Opening Of Laemmle Theatre
On Friday morning, the Laemmle Theatre in Old Town Newhall officially opened to the public, marked by a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by city council members, community members and the Laemmle family.
The opening comes after a year of delays, with the family-run theatre having been ready for its grand opening months ago, but cancelled due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The theatre was able to stay in business through the year by patrons buying gift cards and premier cards, as well as government stimuli.
Now with its opening, the theatre can host patrons at 25 percent capacity and requires reservations for seats.

After two back-to-back losses in California’s 25th congressional district, Democrat Christy Smith announced that she will seek a rematch against Congressman Mike Garcia (R-CA). The Republican lawmaker upset Smith in a nationally-watched special election in May of 2020, and defeated her once again in November’s general election. The special election occurred to fill the seat vacated by disgraced former Congresswoman Katie Hill (D-CA), who resigned for engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a subordinate staffer.
Smith pointed to the close margin of votes in November, despite President Biden’s 10-point victory in the district. Hillary Clinton also won the 25th district with resounding support in 2016.
