I was the manager here from 1987-1988 and also had helped out there in 1983-84. it had a large auditorium and my fsvorite memories were when we showed the Rocky Horror shows at halloween to sellout crowds.I believe it closed around 1989-90 when the bank bought it.
Status should be demolished. This theatre has been replaced by an addition to the US Bank building.
The Varsity opened as the Garden and was later known as the Astro before being known as the Varsity.
