The Plaza was a single screen theatre located in the downtown section of Potosi. It opened on August 5, 1937 as a replacement for the Delco Theatre (it has its own page on Cinema Treasures). It suffered some damage from a fire in nearby buildings the day after its opening. The Plaza Theatre was a single floor building. It had a small V shaped marquee with neon lettering on each side spelling out Plaza. It has been closed for decades.

Harry Blount opened the Plaza Theatre on August 5, 1937 as the replacement of the Delco Theatre.

  • Unfortunately on the very next day after grand opening, the Plaza Theatre suffered damage from a nearby hotel fire. Its newly-installed plate glass windows were destroyed, as well as some of its sun-tan structural glass in the front of the wall and the marquee glass were cracked. This led to a very short closure until reopening a short time later.
