Was there two separate Strand theatres? The first one was renamed from Ellen on May 19th, 1917 and closed in 1935 and the 2nd strand opened on March 29th, 1942 and closed in 1952.
This reopened as Strand on May 19th, 1917. Grand opening ad posted.
The NRHP nomination form for the Provo Downtown Historic District says that this theater was built by John B. Ashton and opened as the Ellen Theatre in 1911. It was renamed the Strand in 1917.
