The April 8, 1917, issue of The Moving Picture World had an article about the recently opened Strand Theatre in Brandon, Manitoba. The Canadian Amusement Company operated the house under lease from owner J. H. Hughes. The manager was George Semper.
Status should be closed/renovating. The Brandon Folk Music, & Art Festival is currently fund raising for this project.
