Regal launched its Regal Lafayette Square 7 in 1991 and closed it at the expiry of a 20-year leasing period in 2011. Odyssey Entertainment took on the venue immediately thereafter giving it a refresh with new seating. It relaunched in March of 2011.

Odyssey temporarily closed in March 16, 2020 for the COVID-19 pandemic. On August 21, 2020, the Odyssey Circuit reopened the Lafayette Square. But the business environment had changed. Odyssey closed permanently here on February 23, 2023. Bryan Sieve, President of Odyssey Theatres said simply, “We had hoped business levels in Marietta would have returned to pre-pandemic levels but they simply have not.” Lease negotiations did not result in a favorable outcome that might have provided a sustainable path forward. The Circuit that includes both the Odyssey and CineMagic brand was then reduced to just seven remaining theatre locations with 48 total screens across Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, and Ohio.
