The Plaza is one of dozens of Tulsa theaters featured in the Arcadia book “Tulsa Movie Theaters.” The Plaza was Tulsa’s first suburban theater, opening in the early 1920s as Alhambra. It became the Plaza in 1930 and operated until 1960. After a brief stint as the Premiere, the theatre was demolished for parking for Alhambra Appliances, 15th & Peoria. Palace Cafe occupies that building now in 2021.
