Warner’s SOONER was the last big downtown theater to be built. The correct address was 125 West Grand, OKC. 125 W Grand Blvd would have place it way out in the neighborhood burbs amoungst the Chieftain, Circle, Knob Hill, Redskin, and Yale.

Lostmemory:
Thank you for giving photo credit to me for REDSKIN Theater photos posted on Cinema Tour. Recently I seem to discover my photos all over the internet with no photo credit listings. I took these pictures and (dabgummit!) I want credit.
When I was 22YOA I went all around Oklahoma City and Norman taking photos of building I found to be of ineterest, most of them were theater structures.
Mangement threw me out of the both the Criterion and Centre Theaters because patrons complained about disturbance from flashbulb glare. Midwest Theater doorman called the police and an officer came and arrested me for disturbing the peace and trespassing, even though I had purchased a ticket. Fortunately, my older brother’s best friend from high school days was an officer and he arranged to get me set free.
It was at dusk on a cold winters day when I snapped that dark Redskin photo, and I planned to return another day for better color images, but at that young age my interest in old movie houses waned quickly and I never returned.
