Projectors - Southcenter Theatre. The Southcenter Theatre, opened in April of 1970, was reportedly the last 70-mm Cinerama-capable theater built in North America. Patrons could sit in comfort in one of the 1,228 plush seats and watch movies on a giant 88 x 32 feet curved screen. Southcenter Theatre was a single-screen theater and never part of the multi-plex trend which later developed across the country. It would close in 2001 with its last performance of "Moulin Rouge."
