On Thursday, the Revue’s board announced to patrons and staff that they might be forced to close as soon as July 1 after failing to reach an agreement for a new commercial lease with the building’s longtime landlords, Danny and Leticia Mullin. After months of negotiations, which included the Revue agreeing to a hike in rent from $10,000 per month to $15,000, discussions broke down, with the Mullins abruptly announcing to staff that they would instead take over the theatre and dissolve the board.
“They wanted me to save the movie house, so I saved it,” Danny Mullin said. “Over 17 years they haven’t done any nothing, none of the maintenance work. They’re socialists. Wake up and smell the daisies.”
