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.{{cite web|url=https://www.arkansasheritage.com/docs/default-source/national-registry/WH1357-pdf|title=NRHP nomination for Beebe Theater|publisher=Arkansas Preservation|accessdate=2015-06-15}}
