My photograph, dated July 2012, was taken through the window of a srvice bus(!), so I didn’t have the chance for a proper look at the cinema, but it appeared to be closed (it wasn’t listed in the film section in the free sheet ‘MV Times’).
The Strand is listed in the 1927 Film Daily Yearbook with 500 seats, open 6 days per week. There is also an Eagle Theatre listed for Oak Bluffs.
Here is a 2008 photo.
The Strand Theatre is listed in the 1926 Film Daily Year Book, and its existence could pre-date that. The 1926 listing reports 500 seats.
Google maps shows the Strand as being located on Oak Bluffs Avenue in Vineyard Haven, MA 02568.
Google Maps is unable to find the address given in the introduction. Are we sure it’s the correct one?
The Strand Theater is listed in 1955 with 600 seats.
Here are two photos of the Strand from 2003:
