This
is where the history of Five Star Productions comes into play envisioning
a show combining classic cars, classic movies and the drive-in experience
supported by the latest in digital technology. This combination is how
Five Star Productions created what is called the Mobile Drive-in Theater.
|
This
rekindles the romance that Americans have with automobiles and the silver
screen.
|
Today
many people recognize the fun and historic value of drive-in theaters.
Groups have been established to try and preserve the few that remain.
|
|
|
Because
drive-in theater is as American as apple pie, this passion is why Five
Star Productions has combined technology with the love Americans have
for drive-ins, and created Mobile Drive-in Theater.
|
This
means Five Star Productions can bring the drive-in experience to any suitable
open space, it's a traveling drive-in movie theater available when and
where needed. This concept is helping bring drive-ins back to the communities
and move them into the millennium.

Five Star Productions was founded in 1988 by I. "Earl" Velasco. His 25 years of Autobody repair and restoration experience inspired him to Showcase this 1968 Camaro SS at car shows in the tri-state area. As a classic Car show competitor, he formed the Connecticut Custom Cruisers and produced Fairfield County's first beach cruise at Cummings Beach in Stamford in May of 1988, and continuing with annual auto shows until 1991. Proceeds from these events benefited the March of Dimes. |
These
shows would not have been as successful without the tremendous help received
from the local sponsors, WSTC, the City of Stamford, and dedicated staff
and volunteers.
