The Rialto Theatre has been a Westfield landmark on the corner of East Broad Street and Central Avenue since September 1, 1922 when it showed its first two silent films; Richard Barthelmess “Sonny” and Buster Keaton in “Cops”. The Rialto anchored the downtown with its stage and single screen undisturbed until 1966 when it was taken over by United Artists Corporation.
Two screens were added on May 26, 1978. A further three screens were added in 1997 after UA sold the theater bringing the total to five screens. Later taken over by Digiplex, then Carmike Cinemas, the historic Rialto Theatre was purchased in 2017 by New Vision’s Jesse and Doreen Sayegh along with the nearby Cranford Theater.
