The actual opening date is May 6, 1952 with Alan Young in “Aaron Slick From Punkin Creek” with no extras. The grand opening advertisement listed its attraction as “Pacific Northwest Premiere” but I’m very sure that is not true.

50sSNIPES commented about Granada 3 Theatre on Oct 25, 2025 at 5:18 pm

The Star Theatre opened its doors on September 18, 1917 with Chapters 14 and 15 of “Iron Claw” and an unnamed Lonesome Luke comedy. S.A. Gardinier was the one who constructed the theater itself.

On February 20, 1952, the Star Theatre relaunched as the Granada Theatre after extensive remodeling on February 21, 1952, reopening with a special Major Studio sneak prevue, followed by its first attraction the following day that being Fred MacMurray in “Callaway Went Thataway” (unknown if extras added), featuring installations of a 20ft veneer-plastic screen, 800 Encore Haywood-Wakefield seats with Luxury Loges, with 100 of those seats being rocking chairs covering the first 10 rows. Unfortunately there is no balcony seating.
