Now the Addis Evangelical Church of San Diego.
Indeed the Academy built in 1925. Apparently taken over by MGM theatres. Marquee suggests it is now a church. In the late 70s they had porn during the days and then a vibrant midnight series on weekends that showed cult films, shorts and animation (Fantastic Planet, etc), art films, Devo, etc. pulled from the college crowd, lots of midnight series in San Diego around this time before video and rep houses went away.
Not really an Amphitheater was it?
The loopnet listing is gone. The Google view shows the theater in bad shape. Here is a photo from better days in 1983:
