Uintah Theatre
Vernal, Utah
On 29 April 1912, the New Uintah Theatre opened in the former Elk Building, which had been remodeled “along the latest moving picture house lines, with sloping floor, soloists platform, etc.” The ticket office was outside, under a “blaze of rows of electric lights.” Patrons of nearby towns appreciated having hitching posts on the premises. The New Uintah closed sometime prior to 1932. The E. W. Davis furniture store occupied the building before it became a piano store called the Henderson-Barlett Music Company.

Article Summary:
In October 1998, after the opening of the new 14-screen Cinemark
Tinseltown at Newgate Mall, Carmike Cinemas dropped admission prices at
the City Square Four theater from $6.25 for adults and $4.25 for
children to $1. Attendance at the theater was averaging 50 patrons on a
typical night, but after the change it jumped to over 200. At the time,
no other theater in the Wasatch Front offered a $1 admission.
