One year, it was purchased by commercial property buyers who tore down the grand theatre to build an arcade as a replacement, in addition to an installment of a gymnasium. This change devastated actors and theatre lovers alike, but it was converted back to a bigger and better theatre under the guidance of Mike Walsh O.B.E and John Love who restored the modern day Orpheum along with Bill and Avgoulla Hendrickson. It now consists of six screens and different auditoriums that are uniquely decorated.

There is plenty to do while vacationing in St. Lucy. One of the most popular is exploring the bright turquoise waters of the Atlantic Ocean, whether it be through swimming, jet skiing, fishing, or more. You must also visit the St. Lucy Parish Church.
Another must-see is the North Point Lighthouse. Here, you can walk 85-feet up the windy staircase to explore the former lighthouse’s lightkeeper’s quarters and the lantern. The lighthouse is not operative today, but the history behind it makes it worth a visit.
