50sSNIPES commented about Eagle Theatre on Nov 4, 2024 at 2:28 pm

The Grand Theatre opened in 1913, and was renamed the Eagle Theatre on January 5, 1933 after it was sold to Mrs. J.E. Moss of Mexico, Missouri. Stilwater once had two movie theaters right after WWII, the Eagle and the Susan.

It was still open in 2011 but was closed around a few years later. The theater was renamed Thurman’s Eagle Theatre in mid-2017 following a remodel including its marquee but appears that the theater never reopened as a movie house afterward.
