The Community Theatre was built in 1937 by Walter Reade. It flourished as a premier motion picture house until 1974. It changed hands several times over the years until it was purchased by a local developer in 1986. It then sat empty and in disrepair until 1994.
Thanks to massive cleanup efforts by a community-based volunteer corps, on September 29, 1994, the Community Theatre reopened to a sell-out crowd, featuring The Kirov Orchestra of St. Petersburg, Russia.
The Community Theatre's concert season has became a cultural fixture in New Jersey. Attractions have included Ray Charles, The Tokyo String Quartet, Bob Newhart, The New Philharmonic of New Jersey, the National Acrobats of China, Doc Severensin, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra, the Masterwork Chorus, and Vonda Shepard, to name just a few.

As one reviewer remarked: "Morristown has suddenly come alive as a cultural and artistic center with attention focused on events at The Community Theatre on South Street."
