This theatre was opened as the Sapphire Cineplex 5:as a replacement for the Cinema which nearby was also owned by John Grey who opened this theatre
This theatre and the Morenci was sold to Hollis Cinemas.
Hollis has since sold them to Allen Theatres.
Manta says that Sapphire Cineplex was established in 2007, but that is probably the year the business was incorporated, and the theater might or might not have been opened that year. The December 16, 2016 issue of Eastern Arizona Courier says that Robert E. Hollis had bought the Sapphire Cineplex from John and Marty Gray on December 4. Hollis’s sale of the Sapphire to Allen Theatres on December 1, 2017, is noted on the web site Gila Valley Central, so Hollis Cinemas only operated the house for a little over a year.
