News About This Theater

Looking down the isle

The 500-seat Strand Theater is located on S. Fourth Street in Hamburg. This small single screen theater retains much of its original charm and is little changed from when it opened on December 25, 1920. The marquee is the brightest spot on the street and lights up the whole area. The auditorium is all on one floor and now has 200-seats.

A group is hoping to turn it nonprofit. Paragraph about history: The Strand has done a great job collecting memories. They have the original projector from 1920. They have ticket stubs and the original red seats. Some of the old movies can be found in the basement.

The Strand’s official web site says that it opened on Christmas Day, 1920. Originally seating 500 (as listed in the 1926 Film Daily Yearbook) it now seats 200. Operation of the Strand was taken over by a community-based non-profit corporation in 2013.
