The Broadway Theatre was renamed the Dakota Theatre on December 24, 1981, but closed on January 19, 1982, due to an unsuccessful discount policy. It reopened as the Broadway Theatre on January 29, 1982, and eventually closed again on February 27, 1986, after being prohibited from showing adult films.
