I have a photo of the old drive-in mentioned in the Stan Malone comment from 2005 above. The shot was taken in 1994, and the concession stand is occupied by a horse. How do we get a new entry listed for that venue?

This is a vintage photo of the Princess theater. Caption: “Princess Theatre now the Mesa”. Compare this photo to the modern photo in the link posted in the first comment above.
I had the pleasure of attending the Mesa in 1998. The manager / owner was very nice and gave me a top to bottom tour of the property before opening. He was obviously very proud of his place and rightfully so. One odd thing that I noticed was the balcony. Instead of extending forward to the back wall of the downstairs, or even out over the back rows, it stopped short. From the front row of the balcony you could look down into the last 10 feet or so of the lobby before it ended at the rear wall of the auitorium.
In the front was an old stage and very small pit for musicians, and under the screen, old dressing room areas from the days of live shows. Other than that I have nothing to add that is not covered better on the above mentioned website. Wish I had the money to buy it. While Douglas, being in the eastern part of Wyoming, is not in the beautiful Teton area, it looked like a nice place to live. Safe to I’ll bet since the Wyoming State Police Academy is located there. An old drive in theatre just north of town serves as the firing range.
I forgot to mention that this theater is for sale. Price is $255,000. Click on the website in the above message. On the left side of the screen, click on “Scene 7 Lights, camera, ACTION!!”. At the bottom of the page is the price and contact information.
Here is a website with some photos of the Mesa Theater in Douglas, Wyoming.
