News About This Theater

Super Cinema Davenport

The Showcase Cinemas Davenport was the first multiplex to open in Davenport, with ten screens. The theatre opened June 15, 1990 by National Amusements showing first run attractions. It did great business until National Amusements opened its Showcase Cinemas 53 located on 53rd Street. It was renamed Super Cinema Davenport on March 31, 2000 as a sub run discount house after the opening of the Showcase 53. It was closed December 3, 2000. It was demolished in 2010.

Though an enlarged version of this image is in the gallery, Retro Quad Cities indicates the Showcase Cinemas announcement sign was erected in March 1989.
