There is a typo in the theater phone number listed here on CT. The correct number is 360.426.4707
Theater opened on May 28, 1964 with Walt Disney’s “Lady & the Tramp” double-billed with “Billy Budd”. Admission was 90 cents for everyone age 12 and up. Wednesdays were $1.25 a carload nights.
Seems like the NEW OWNERS don’t care from what I read Above,Then why on Earth would you want to buy a Theatre only to run folks off; it is a sad statement if above posts are true,Heck it is probably closed now.

When I was a kid growing up in Olympia in the late 70’s/early 80’s, the Skyline was showing X-rated movies. My friends and I found their ads in the Daily Olympian very interesting and always tried to figure out ways we could sneak in. However, their ads all stated “If you can’t open your trunk, don’t come.”
This Theater is in a sad state. The sound is awfull and the contrast on the screen is very poor making it hard to see the movie. They will kick you out without a refund if they see that you brought outside food into the drive-in, which IMO goes against the very foundation of what drive-ins are meant to be. What are they going to do search your car?
Their food is poor and the food stand is dungy and dirty, with only part of their video games working and the non-working games without signs saying that they don’t work. The food is over expensive with a long wait.
A very poor experiance all the way around. We probably wont be going back there for a while, if at all!
