Information for this tour was contributed by Darren Snow and Bob Meza.

Abandoned by the Kerasotes chain, the shuttered Wings Twin (so named because Rantoul was for many years home to a major Air Force base) awaits its next assignment.

The speakers protrude out the back of the building because the screen is mounted to the back wall. This theater was closed by Kerasotes Theaters and they are now using the building for storage as they do not want to release the building to anyone who would make it a theater. The town does not have a theater now, and they must travel 30 miles to see movie.
