Jackson, MS (5465 I-55)

5465 I-55, Store #213 was a Pizza Time Theatre that opened in August 1982 as part of the Melvin franchise and relocated to 6352 Ridgewood Court Rd in June 2009.

It was located next to a former Kmart (Which closed on November 4th, 1992) which was later Big Lots & Save A Lot (Which was some other store) and is the Big Lots section of the building is now AutoZone (Later City Thrift) meanwhile the other part of the building is now Vacant & a Northern Tools.

It was also the first Chuck E. Cheese to open in Mississippi.

Stages
This location debuted with a Balcony Stage, one of two in the state, the other being in Biloxi, MS. Sometime around 1990, the Balcony Stage was retrofitted with Chuck E.'s House Facade. Throughout the 1990's, most of the cosmetics were replaced with updated ones. This was the second to last known location with the façade installation. This location also had the Beagles as a lounge act when they were a Pizza Time Theatre, it is unknown when this act was removed.

In early 1999 the former Balcony Stage would be demolished and Studio C would be installed in an empty wall next to the stage. In 1999, their C-Stage was replaced the Studio C which remained at the store until relocation. The Chuck E. Cheese animatronic on this Studio C kept its original Late-Night inspired outfit until its relocation in 2009.

History
Besides the opening of the location, very little is known about this location as a Pizza Time Theatre, other than the fact that before 1991 the location would remodel for the first time as part of unifying Pizza Time Theatre and Showbiz Pizza Place. The location would remodel for the second and final time in early 1999, most likely receiving Phase 2 in the process.

In June 2009 this location would relocate to 6352 Ridgewood Court Rd, with a majority of assets from this location being transferred to the new location. The former space of the Chuck E. Cheese's would be bought by a local supermarket and would reopen on December 21, 2010 as "Oriental Supermarket & Restaurant" and "Mr. Chen's Authentic Chinese Cooking". The only traces of Chuck E. Cheese's that remain within the building is the architectural design choices that made CEC distinguishable.
