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.

LeGrande and Betty Larsen opened the 300-seat Pickleville Playhouse in the summer of 1977, naming the theater after a town near Bear Lake that was later annexed into Garden City. The family-owned business is currently run by Andrea Davis and her son T. J. Davis. Adjacent to the theater is the Pickleville Pavilion, which offers an optional western-style cookout. Performers include students and graduates from Utah State University, as well as some high school students.
