The Pantages Theatre has reopened for off-broadway type shows. The Auditorium has been restored to its 1922 appearence, while the lobby is modern. A vertical sign of the marquee has been restored to its 1920s look.
The photo you have is of the 1904 Minneapolis Orpheum which was located on 7th Street in Minneapolis. It was later named the 7th Street and closed in the 1930s and was razed.
The 1921 Minneapolis Orpheum which opened as the Hennepin and has been restored is a totally different theatre. Also the 1921 Orpheum ran movies up the mid 1970s.
I regret to say that the photo you have up of the Minneapolis Orpheum is actually the Minneapolis Orpheum which opened in 1904 and closed in the 1930s as the 7th Street Theatre. The restored Minneapolis Orphuem which is open today is a larger house, several blocks away from where this earlier Orpheum stood. By the way today’s Orpheum played movies until 1978. To see a photo of the present Orpheum and the restored Minneapolis State Theatre check out their web site which is I believe State-Orpheum.com, if that doesn’t work let me know and I’ll direct to another.
The Suburban World is currently closed.

The Garrick 4 closed in 2002. The building is still standing but it is doubtful that it will reopen as a cinema.
