One of the few types of “theaters” that has continued to operate during the COVID-19 pandemic are drive-ins. Though initially closed during the statewide shutdown, drive-ins have operated the last few months, both as weekend getaways for families who can safely social distance and as an outdoor option for churches to safely have their members congregate in one area.

Though there are no new movie releases playing at area drive-ins, they have been playing new and old favorites to help residents pass the time.

Here are the two area drive-in locations:

Cumberland Drive-In Theatre:

• 715 Centerville Road, Newville

Haar’s Drive-In Theatre:

• 185 Logan Road, Dillsburg

Live stage shows have fallen by the wayside with local performing arts theaters closed for the bulk of the summer. Some larger groups, including Open Stage Harrisburg, have opted to host online stage shows, but most of the local theaters are unlikely to bring up the curtains until 2021.
