Address should be changed to 591 Broadway Street.
I am certain that the address currently listed for this theater is actually that for the former Star Theater Two and that the address currently listed for the Star Theatre Two is the correct one for this theater. The addresses should be corrected.
The Star is now the Victory Fellowship church and the function above should be church. As the online history indicates, the church could have chosen two properties and chose the one at 591 Broadway. The church’s website indicates it was formerly a cinema. The article cited above indicates it’s the building at 618 Broadway that is going to be renovated and was formerly the West/Rock Theater.
According to this online history, this theater (at 618 Broadway Street) opened as the West and later became the Rock: View link
The history indicates that the seat count at the opening was 758, much larger than that given above. I might be wrong, but I think this theater was the one that in its last operating days was the Star Theatre Two.
At any rate, this is the theater building that will be soon renovated and reopened. It will be given back its original name of the West Theatre: View link
The last owner of this theater was Movie Palaces, Inc., that owns other theaters in Rock Springs, Green River, Cheyenne, and Casper.
The consensus is that the name should be changed to the Star Theatre.
