Maybe the air conditioner is having problems again??? There was a fire alarm a few months ago while I was watching 13 Hours: the Secret Soldiers of Benghazi which was caused by a faulty signal from the air conditioning system.
Or, the Morses or some other group purchased block tickets for some kind of party. That has happened for specific showings of movies like one of the early offerings various movies.

The last show started at 7:20. The box office closes at 7:30 Sun.-Thurs. This is all stated in a full page ad in "The Daily Sun" ( the paper people hate to read)
Doors are probably locked to keep people out who are not patrons after last show starts. (can still get out from inside)
There are two sets of public rest rooms at LSL for people on the Square ... the ones in the movie lobby are not one of them. ;)
Or.... we can use our vivid imaginations and think it is related to a fire incident a few months ago and maybe the Morse family taking it over for the evening. :ohdear:
This is all just MHO..... I don't have any degrees (just a little common sense)

Well, I stand corrected then. I do not get to the Squares very often after 5:00 PM.
I guess they do not want people using the restrooms in the lobby so they lock the doors after 8:00 PM during the weekdays, at least at the Old Mill Playhouse.
My 224 613 Project is all about common sense and practicality not people with advancing training in academia. They often have little connection to day-to-day happenings. Google Taltarzac725 and you should see what I am talking about with respect to common sense over the arrogance of some people with many degrees. I do have four degrees but also worked my way through school to get each of these.
Thanks for doing some practical research for us CWGUY. I guess I had a little flight of the imagination rather than going down to the theater at 8:00 PM some night to see what was really going on there at the Old Mill Playhouse.
My 224 613 Project has had a lot of connections with the movies and movie theaters since the guy behind me at the Petaluma Theater in Northern CA had asked me "Did you see that?" when the 612 number came up with respect to testing of phials in the 1995 Northern CA filmed "Outbreak". Outbreak*(1995) - Rotten Tomatoes (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/outbreak/) 613 is my number in a 17 week study on stress on the unemployed done at the University of California San Francisco Health Sciences Campus during late 1992-1993. 2-24 is my birthday. I use to cruise the Hollywood movie trailers across the fairway when we lived bordering a golf course in Rohnert Park that was near the Red Lion Inn where various movie people stayed before heading out to Northern CA based filming locations. This was with my rather square amber cocker spaniel named Amber. No imagination there in the naming either. Google Taltarzac725 again for my story of common sense, academia, and ordinary people doing research.

Best way to eliminate people from wandering in and not having to have someone monitoring the lobby. Maybe they reduce staff at this time each evening.

I thought that in this time of troubles around the world too it might be a safety feature of locking the doors after a reasonable period with respect to ticket sales. My guess is that other communities have been doing this for a while but I do not leave the Villages very often. I did go to some DC area movie theaters at night May of 2015 and do not remember them locking the doors but they have a lot more people out at night than the Villages does. And that was in May 2015 not at a time like now. And there were armed mall security guards out and about too near these shopping centers with movie theaters in them in the DC area.

Do some research. It is not hard. My story is on TOTV quite a bit and it is something that should be of interest to people. It is not a stretch to think that some celebrities would do their part in empowering survivors/victims of crimes. And they do have e-mail addresses and Facebook accounts. And I do have four degrees, a lot of free time, passion, and a very intense set of experiences with the Michelle Mitchell 2-24-1976 murder investigation in Reno, Nevada. I was a student in Barbara Mitchell's remedial English class at Earl Wooster High School in the Winter-Spring of 1976 when we learned that Michelle Mitchell had been murdered on my birthday of 2-24 near the University of Reno, Nevada School of Nursing. I started looking for materials in libraries in Reno, Nevada to help my fellow Earl Wooster High School students cope with this investigation. The Mitchell family gave me a Memorial Scholarship in the name of their daughter, Michelle Mitchell, along with John Picollo, for the 1976-1977 School Year. I obtained two BAs at the University of Nevada, Reno. One in Philosophy and the other in History. I also earned a MA in Librarianship and Information Management from the University of Denver and a Law Degree. I have had to fight very hard though for respect for the needs of survivors/victims of crimes. This is a need for practical information to cope with whatever the legal system and society throws at them. My resources have been extremely limited so I have had to get very creative with how I battle for the needs of survivors/victims of crimes. I have also encountered some deeply disturbing tricks done against this effort by defenders of the status quo. Google Taltarzac725. May the Force Be With You.
I worked for prisoners at Legal Assistance to Minnesota Prisoners my second and third year of Law School at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities in 1987-1989. This was as a Student and then Student Clinical Director for Minnesota Correctional Facility--Stillwater. So, I proved that I could be objective about the legal system by working with pieces of maybe 40 various prisoners cases during that time. I cannot go into details of these cases because of lawyer ethics but these prisoners and ex-prisoners had a wide range of reasons why they were in prison or needed help of prison lawyers.
I have run into people from the Twin Cities here in the Villages and earlier in Palm Harbor during the almost 20 years we have lived here in Central Florida. They have for the most part been quite nice.
What does this have to do with the Old Mill Playhouse? Quite a bit I believe. There are other ways for people to get a message out to the powers that be than making a full blown movie about the Michelle Mitchell murder and its ugly legal history. Some people in movie production are very creative as well and do care about the people in their audience who watch these movies.
I have also had Jury Duty in Central Florida. In Sumter County, Pinellas County and at the Federal Courthouse in Ocala. I did need to cover some of this -- without facing butterfly nets-- at all of these venues even if I was quite reluctant to talk about it in Ocala without access to any of my documents and with no advance knowledge of what kind of Federal case would face the Jury Members.
And I hope that the local librarians as well as the three Sheriff's Offices (Lake, Sumter and Marion) are aware of my efforts on behalf of survivors/victims of crimes and getting them access to the most practical information available to them. Again Google Taltarzac725.
I hope some of the retired social workers-- especially in the psychiatric field-- are also reading my posts on the 224 613 Project. As well as the people with law enforcement backgrounds and some of the caring retired lawyers I know who are on TOTV. Some of the law students I knew at the University of Minnesota as well as at BYU Law School and the University of Denver were fine people. I even ran across one who has 2-24 as a birthday.
