Joie Theatre
Brigham City, Utah

The Joie Theatre in Brigham City was known by as many as four names from November 1909 to November 1910.  After the Florence theater chain went under in 1910, former manager B. M. Neal and his wife slipped out of Brigham City using back streets and fields in an attempt to avoid paying their many debts.

The old Holiday Village Cinema closed on 22 July 2001 and was demolished to make way for the Holiday Village 4, a new four-screen multiplex with stadium seating. The theater is being rebuilt as part of a renovation of the Holiday Village Shopping Center. The closure of the old theater left Park City without a working movie theater until the new one was completed.

"Newsday film critic John Anderson once dubbed the cramped, stuffy shoeboxes 'the Sciatica triplex.' The undersized theater gained notoriety at the 1999 festival with two incidents: a near-riot of ticketholders at an oversold screening of "American Pimp," and the fall of a ventilation conduit just before a screening of 'American Movie' that injured three moviegoers."1
