Stringham Theatre
Price, Utah
C. M. Stringham, proprietor of the Eko Theatre, purchased a lot on the north side of Main Street, with the intent of building a 1000-seat, first class theatre. The building was to be “a good and substantial one,” a theatre of which Price could “well be proud and one that will be the equal, on a smaller scale of course, of any theatre in the state in beauty and completeness.” At one point, construction was to start within 60 days. Instead, Stringham purchased the Colonial Theatre four years later and moved to Ogden.

[Picture Shows and Theater Troups are Coming In]
Wasatch Wave, 19 November 1909, page 2
That our light is attractive to people outside of town is demonstrated by the way picture shows and theater troupes are coming in. The family theater holds forth two nights a week at the Opera house, the Alice Theater started up this week in Buell's Hall, the Beach and Bowers company gave us a call this week and several other concerns are casting goo goo eyes our way.
