This replaced the Kokomo Mall 8 (formerly known as Kokomo Mall Cinemas I-II-III and Kokomo Mall Cinemas I-II-III-IV) across the street, which will have its own Cinema Treasures page soon.
According to Cinematour, this theater actually closed on September 6, 2001, just five days before 9/11. I didn’t see evidence on the theater afterward.
The Auditorium dates back as early as 1912 and was later named Auditorium Theatre in 1919. The Auditorium Theatre was a longtime movie theater for the city and was dominant there, but closed in 1975 in connection of a then-new cinema only a mile south of downtown which was later known as the Mall 5 Theatres. Stillwater left without a cinema since the closure of the Mall 5 Theatres in the late 1990s (or possibly early 2000s).
General Cinema operated the Britton from April 15, 1959 until August 25, 1991. After temporarily closing for nearly two months, the Britton reopened as a Muvico theater in October 1991 before Regal took it over four years later in 1995.
The Westgate Cinema was later operated by Texas Cinema Corporation after its short-lived ownership of Showcase Theatres. The Texas Cinema Corporation also operated the city’s Ritz Theatre and the McKinney Drive-In as well.
Also according to the website CinemaTour, there was another cinema in McKinney back in the day called Cinema McKinney, and was also operated by the Texas Cinema Corporation; but unfortunately I don’t know anything else about it.
So the theater was named after their family’s sister, and his father made a model out of his wife’s different types of salad bowls? That’s very unique!
Opened on May 2, 1969.
