The Iris opened on September 1, 1925 with the film "The Lady" starring Norma Talmadge. Admission was 15 cents and 25 cents. There was a contest to name the theater, in which the winner collected a $25 prize.
The theater was damaged by a fire and remodeled in late 1970. In 1985, the marquee fell off of the building during a storm.
Parts of the 1976 movie "Drive-In" were filmed here. Photos Photos remain the property of the Member and may not be reproduced without the written consent of the Member. |
