Young Mr. Lincoln at The Marvel Theatre

Step Back in Time at the Marvel Theatre!

Join us Saturday, August 2 at 1:00 PM for an afternoon of history, storytelling, in the cool, nostalgic comfort of Carlinville’s Marvel Theatre. We’re rolling out the red carpet for a FREE screening of the timeless film Young Mr. Lincoln—a stunning black-and-white tribute to the early years of one of America’s greatest leaders.

And that’s not all… Before the lights dim, Abraham Lincoln himself (portrayed by Randy Duncan) will step onto the stage to reflect on his formative years in central Illinois, including time spent right here in Carlinville. His heartfelt storytelling will transport you to a time when honesty, humor, and humble beginnings set the course for greatness.

Come for the film. Stay for the free popcorn and a drink. Bring your friends, bring your family, and enjoy a classic cinematic experience—Carlinville style.
