This theater was very tastfully twinned and the balcony and main floor now serve as the two theaters. This is a great place to see a movie if you're in Cheyenne. Its very well kept up and well operated.

I noticed that on their web site this theatre is called the Lincoln Popcorn Palace, i also noticed that it is called that on several other sites.

Also I noticed on their website thate the Lincoln is a second run discount house.

It is a 2nd run discount house. admission (presently) is $2.00 or free when you purchase a bag of popcorn. I visited in March of '09 and saw "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" In the original downstairs auditorium. My memory isn't serving me well but for some reason, I think that it's a triplex. I seem to remember the upstairs having 2 theaters with the large, original auditorium down. At any rate, it is very tastefully divided, as someone else stated above. The color scheme in the main auditorium is blue and it features a curved screen. It is a very large and impressive building, both inside and out. The lobby is very nice and well decorated with a large concession stand. Took a peek in the balcony theater (or one of them, if I'm right about it being a triplex) and it was very nice as well, although very small. It did retain much of the original balcony look and feel.

A wonderful theater to visit. I'd kill to have been able to experience it back in its single screen days!

Fox Intermountain Theatres spent $125,000 to renovate the Lincoln Theatre in 1955. The reopening was mentioned in Boxoffice of August 20. The modern front dates from that time. The renovation, under the supervision of Fox Intermountain's in-house architect Mel C. Glatz, included upgrading the screen and projection equipment to allow the Lincoln to present movies in the latest wide screen processes including Todd-AO.

The earliest mention of the Lincoln Theatre I've found in Boxoffice dates from October 1, 1938. It was listed as one of a number of theaters presenting both movies and live stage acts, though usually only on a single-day basis. As it had a stage, it was most likely opened in the 1920s or earlier.
