Wish this cinema would never have been made into 6. Was a great theater in its day has the colony. Cleveland Cinemas should have kept the Colony name

I worked this theater as part time Assistant Manager of The Colony in 1950. It was a beautiful place to work. Most of my time was spent at the Uptown Theater on St. Clair Ave. in Cleveland. hehrman28
