LE MARS, IA — The family-owned Royal T III has been closed and is up for sale in this town, about 25 miles northeast of Sioux City. The theater has been operating for over 75 years. The owners want to focus on their other theaters and are working with a local historical preservation group to preserve the building’s character.
“There are potential investors looking at taking it over,” said Patrick Johnson, who manages the theater with his wife Sara.
