About

Designed by architect Alexander Aimwell Cantin built by Donald Rheem in 1941, the art-deco style Orinda Theatre is a true treasure.

The Orinda Theatre was opened in 1941 and was built by Donald Rheem, with architect Alexander Aimwell Cantin. Slated for demolition in 1984, it was saved through the efforts of preservationists and reopened in 1989, when 2 additional screens were added. The original lobby and main theatre were left intact. The murals in the #2 added theatre were saved from the Garden Theatre in San Jose when it was demolished.
