The Michigan, unlike many older theatres, escaped severe alterations as styles and the movie business changed over the years. Early on, the interior was partially repainted in a darker color scheme, carpet was changed, the marquee was changed to a modern, streamlined style, and a candy counter was added. Its original owners, Butterfield Theatres, maintained it well until it ceased operation in 1978. Since then, it has deteriorated to its current state. The Michigan Theatre of Jackson Inc, a not-for-profit Michigan corporation, acquired the building from the City of Jackson on August 24, 1993. The group continues to restore and operate the theatre, bring in classic films, art films, live theatre productions, concerts, meetings, and other community events. The project will finally transform downtown Jackson's sleeping beauty into a major attraction for the entire region.
