Though I grew up.down the street from here and we shopped at this center regularly (I can name almosr every shop in the center from the 70s) I never remember this as a theater, oddly. But after it became a racquetball place it became a series of failed gyms (one after the other) and at one point D and J Hobby entertained absorbing the space into a large expansion but they couldn’t get the landlord to level the floor so it fell through…

then Dolphin Pet moved from its original location in the Kirkwood Plaza (across the street) to this location. It was there for several years and was going to go out of business but apparently then moved back over to Kirkwood into a smaller locale and then eventually closed.

After the pet shop left the old theater it became an Ernie Reyes martial arts studio …Which it continues to be at this point in March of 2017….

PS I worked at D and J from 88 until 2009 so I watched most of this first hand…lol
