Patricia Theatre, Powell River

The original Patricia Theatre opened in 1913 but was rebuilt in 1928. It has continuously operated as a movie theatre until Covid shut it down in 2020. There is some doubt as to whether it will reopen although there is a local drive to try and save it.
What a pity that would be if it were not to reopen, I am sure many will miss it. Quite a unique looking building style.

Hope it can attract some investment to help it re-start again.

So many stories that building could tell, I bet.

I hope that they will save the theater but times are hard right now. This looks as if it could be a small town which probably makes it even more difficult to maintain a business.

@ljmanning Apparently John Barrymore made a live appearance at the theatre, so that’s one story. I’m sure there are many more.
