Roosevelt Twin Theatre
Roosevelt, Utah
George H. Harrison and R. Howard Harrison opened the $40,000 Roosevelt Theatre on Valentine's Day, 14 February 1942, with Shirley Temple in Kathleen. The “modern up-to-the minute motion picture theatre” was described as “new, beautiful, and elaborately equipped.” The interior color scheme was peach, green, and beige, with red velour curtains and drapes. The 500 seats in the auditorium were “arranged on a slight arc so that every seat directly faces the screen.” The stage was large and had floodlights, so the theater could “accommodate many types of entertainment” and serve as “a community playhouse as well as a motion picture theatre.”

Article Summary:
In August 1992, Cinemark announced that it would expand the Movies 10
theater at Layton Hills Mall to 14 screens by spring 1993.
Groundbreaking on the expansion was to begin within 60 days and was to
include 13,300 square feet and four 200-seat theaters. Randy Hester,
director of corporate development for Cinemark in Dallas, declined to
comment on rumors that the Movies 6 theater, located next to Movies 10,
would revert to a dollar theater once the expansion was completed.
