Showstar Cinemas 6
Taylorsville, Utah
The Mann 6 Theatres at the Plaza 5400 Shopping Center opened 2 October 1980 with an invitation-only gala attended by Ted Mann and his wife, Miss Rhonda Fleming. The six-screen theater closed in August 2000 as part of Carmike Cinemas’ Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but reopened in April 2001 as part of Consolidated Theaters. The theater’s name changed to Showcase Cinemas 6, then Showstar Cinemas 6, while the chain operator went from Red Carpet Cinemas to CinemaStar Cinemas. The theater closed 5 September 2016, as a new Regal Cinemas was being built across the street.

Yeggs Crack Safe, Escape with $140
Salt Lake Telegram, 31 May 1952, page 9
Hardworking safe crackers obtained approximately $140 from a safe at the Camark Theater, 2759 S. State, between midnight and 8 a.m. Saturday.
Forcing open a door which leads to the boiler room, the yeggs then chiseled through a wall leading into the theater. They gained access to the office and pushed the 500-Ib. safe into the theater where they knocked off the dial and stole Friday's receipts.
