I remember there was one in the Keele and Finch area, south of Finch on Keele street. Cant remember the name of the theater Saw MANNEQUIN and and POLICE ACADEMY 3 😁 there in 1987 as a double feature for dirt cheap tickets with a friends family. Those were the days
From the Globe, 1973: "Next door [to the Cinesphere] in Theatre One, you can view Toronto the Food, a 13-minute feature produced and directed by Chris Chapman. Theatre One is not a restful spot. After lining up to see the show, it's something of a drag to find yourself in a room studded with rows of uncomfortable wooden stools." The last reference in the Star or Globe is 1983, a "ready to wear" fashion show using the space. Early that year, they were showing The Black Stallion and The Black Stallion Returns nightly.
"To see a first run film it will cost you $3.75 or $4." According to the Bank of Canada inflation calculator that means a movie today (at most) should cost $15.27... though the seats are better than they were back then.
