50sSNIPES commented about Oak Harbor Cinemas on Sep 27, 2025 at 7:52 pm

The Plaza Cinema 2 opened its doors on January 23, 1981 with “The Mirror Crack’d” in Screen 1 and “The Private Eyes” in Screen 2. A third screen was added on May 6, 1983, and was renamed the Plaza Cinemas.

During its early days as a twin as of 1981, both auditoriums housed 208 seats each, which is 416 seats total, and the rows of seats in both auditoriums are laid out in an arc so each viewer’s point of vision is directed at the center of the screen. The two original auditoriums are also separated by an 18-inch thick wall composed in insulated sheet rock, dead air space, and other materials that made the sound “deadened”. Its original managers are Steve Lange and John Solin, and the entire theater building measures 7,000 square-foot located just south of the Safeway store, which had also opened around that same week as its original 1981 opening for the theater.
