It was still listed as the Bluebird Theatre in the 1926 edition of Film Daily yearbook, but by the 1930 edition of F.D.Y. it is listed as the Ramona Theatre.

Two recent views of the Cinema Atlas (it looks closed, but it isn’t… there seems to be a lack of film posters available to display on Moroccan cinemas):

I have signed, and reminded what happened in 1983 when 5 theatres bit the dust! It must not happen again.

Prior to the earthquake there had been four cinemas operating in Agadir. All were destroyed.

Ken Roe commented about Miller Theater on Sep 24, 2007 at 7:28 pm

Yes, the 1926 edition of Film Daily Yearbook lists the two Miller Theater’s;this one on Sutter Avenue and another located on 351 Saratoga Avenue with a 600 seat capacity. This has gone from the 1927 and future editions.

Ken Roe commented about Mayflower Arts Center on Sep 23, 2007 at 9:21 pm

The Mayflower Theater is listed in Film Daily Yearbooks; editions 1941 and 1943 with a seating capacity of 600. In the 1950 edition of F.D.Y. the seating capacity is given as 544. Sadly none of these editions give an address to verify if the Mayflower was located at 11 W. Main Street.
