Studio 4 ceased to exist as of this afternoon 4-26-22. The façade was there when I went in for a hair cut and gone when I cam out

Theatre is doing well. As kids we would spend Saturday watching two or three movies at a time, either there or down the street at the Bloomfield with the Studio 4 across the street (Now being demolished) We used to hang out on the porches of the houses next which were than converted and used for offices until they were demolished in the early 1980s. I clearly remember the large grille on the ceiling but as per an earlier post in the 1990s when the building was completely gutted and subdivided into theatres of several sizes. During this reconstruction I looked inside and there was nothing there, just a big open space. I went there only one time around 1980 to see a play with my parents and remember reading that it closed not because of a lack of business but because the owners were not able to book enough acts to keep it going.
