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.

'Lawrence' Opens Today In Orem
Deseret News, 15 September 1989, page W2
Article Summary:
The SCERA theater was probably the smallest market in the United States
to show the restored 70mm version of "Lawrence of Arabia." The film
opened at the SCERA on 15 September 1989, following the installation of
a new Dolby SR sound system in the 28-speaker, 756-seat auditorium.
Technicians also realigned the theater's speakers especially for the
film. It was the first film to show in 70mm at the SCERA since 1985.
