The Mars Theatre is listed in the 1950 edition of Film Daily Yearbook, but no seating capacity is given. This generally means that the theatre has recently opened and details have not been passed on to the editors.

From the article posted May 3 2007, does anyone know if they have done anything to reopen this theatre as the entertainment complex?

Even though google mapping is off as usual, it looks like nothing has been done with the theatre in some years. Still closed up tight and needs a lot of TLC.
