Every theater that was purchased by the Martina Chain,was downgraded into a secondary show house and eventually closed as a result of poor management.

I have a transom stained glass window that came from a theatre in Rochester. My father bought it in the 70’s. I’m wondering if it’s from this theatre, or possibly another still-standing theatre. It has a cornucopia design. If anyone has any info about this, please respond. Thank you.

When it closed it was part of the Martina Theatres chain. After closing it was used by the Rochester Film Festival occasionally. Saw “Weekend of a Champion” about racer Jackie Stewart here. It was a small older theatre but very nice in its day.

The Regent closed early 1973 and was demolished in November 1973. The No. 40 Wurlitzer Hope-Jones organ was saved from the theatre as it was being torn down and was put into storage by the Rochester Theatre Organ Society.

The address for the Regent Theatre should be 65 East Avenue.
