The Theatorium, opened in 1906, was the first theater to be built in Ardmore. It took much pride in showing only films that it considered of “high class” such as “Life Portrayals” and “Pictured Melodies”.

American International’s 1973 release “DILLINGER” (starring Warren Oates, Michelle Phillips, Richard Dreyfuss, Ben Johnson, and Cloris Leachman) shot several key scenes in Ardmore. When Dillinger pauses to rob a bank, just after escaping jail, the Theatroium Bldg. can clearly be recognized.
