Pan Pacific Theatre

There may be some confusion between the world-famous Pan Pacific Auditorium, a live venue where Elvis, among many others, performed, and the Pan Pacific Theatre, which sat nearby on Melrose Ave. I believe the latter closed down and was demolished in the mid-‘80s—not to be confused with the fire that destroyed the auditorium on the eve of its planned restoration. The last film I ever saw at the Pan Pacific Theatre was the re-release of “Rear Window” in the '80s; I believe it was a Laemmle house then.
