Historic Orchestra Hall
One historic highlight is Orchestra Hall. Lakeside Chautauqua is home to Ottawa County’s only movie theatre, Orchestra Hall and it’s been running movies since the early 1930s. In 2024, Lakeside upgraded the movie experience with a new projector, screen and audio sound system enhancing the experience for all generations. Orchestra Hall has been a special place as children experience going to the movies alone and feel the independence and freedom as they enjoy a film.
Ohio's Last Authentic Silent Movie Theater
Experience Silent Films
Silent Films are a Lakeside favorite as Clark Wilson, one of the most recognized scorers of silent photoplays in America takes center stage in Hoover Auditorium in the summer. Silent films are a highly anticipated experience for all ages. Clark works exclusively with the organ to develop historically accurate musical accompaniments as they were performed in major pictures during the heyday.Â
