Exterior general view

Located in downtown Bingen, Washington, the Canyon Theatre opened in 1949. It always ran double features such as "Gunfight At Commanche Creek" and "Muscle Beach Party". They had an annual Canned Foods Christmas Benefit show for the needy.

By the late-1960’s, it was gone, leaving only the Rodeo Drive-In in the town to cater for movies.

Later reopened as the George Theatre, it was closed in 2009. It now operates as a performing arts theatre, known as the Bingen Theater.

I don’t think the Bingen Theatre was demolished, from what I found it was later remodeled and re-opened as the Gorge Theatre at 206 N. Oak St. It closed in 2009 and is still standing. The header should be Gorge Theatre with with an AKA Bingen Theatre.

I’ve discovered that the Bingen Theater is now an arts center, and presents concerts and plays throughout the year. It also houses a recording studio.

The theater website also features videos from live concerts, and looks to be in very nice shape.
