Farmington theater leans on upgrades, alcohol and the internet for resurgence

FARMINGTON — It's a cold and drizzly evening in early November, and Lucy Savoy is outside the Farmington Civic Theater. On the evening of Nov. 5, Savoy and her teammates on Clarkston High School's ski team made the trek to Farmington to watch ski documentarian Warren Miller's 2026 feature, "Days Off." The ski team crowded down the sidewalk with other moviegoers as they made their way into the theater lobby, which quickly filled up. "This is like a whole experience," said Savoy, 18. "They have booths and stuff, and it’s amazing. We’re really excited to go see the movie.” "Days Off" is just one of the special screenings at the Civic Theater that'll play this month at the quaint theater on Grand River Avenue in downtown Farmington. More than 25 years after the city of Farmington purchased the 1939 building to better control how it would be used, theater and city leaders are pushing to sustain it. The theater got an alcohol license earlier this year and recently installed new leather rockers from the Romeo Theater, another small-town theater that shut down earlier this year amid changing movie-goer habits. Officials have also discussed installing a pizza oven at the theater.

What Daniel Jones Learned About Making a Living from Passion

“So my very first video that I made played in front of 800 women.” When the videographer missed his mother’s women’s conference, Daniel Jones went from assisting to making the recap himself. The church gave him the job. On Detroit is Different, the East Warren-raised DJ and media entrepreneur traces that moment back to a family that had been finding its own way in Detroit since 1940, when his grandfather, a sharecropper from Greenwood, Mississippi, came north looking for opportunity. His father, a pastor who had worked at General Motors, urged him to figure out how to create income before following him into the plant. “I want to allow what I’m monetizing to affect the earth,” Jones says. From making music for youth church to learning how to catch a moment that only happens once at a wedding, Jones shares how he learned to make a living with a camera and what he’s putting into a book for young people figuring out what they can build with what they already know.
