The Beebe Theater was a historic performance space on Center Street in Beebe, Arkansas. It was a two-story brick structure, with a decorative brick-faced marquee extending in front, and decorative brickwork squares and parapet above the second level. A pair of entries flanked the ticket window in an entry that was recessed and raised a few steps above the sidewalk. Built about 1930, the building was a well-preserved example of vernacular commercial architecture found in smaller Arkansas cities. [2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. [1] It has been listed as destroyed in the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program database. [3]
