Opened in 1925 with a seating capacity of 600, the Strand Theatre closed in 1965 when it burnt down.

A small mention of the Strand is made in this 2003 article from the News-Gazette:

“City attorney Carroll remembers going into the Kandy Kitchen on Saturdays for a hamburger and homemade milkshake before a matinee at the now-defunct Strand Theater in the 1950s”.

The following is from a comment posted on Driveins.com under the Tuscola Drive-In listing:

“Tuscola Drive In enjoyed a lot of popularity especially after the tragic 1967 Strand Theatre fire in Tuscola”.

Cinematour also gives a closing year of 1967 and a demolition year of 1967.
